Raising money for

Ovarian Cancer Action

Charity Registration No. 1109743

Ovarian Cancer Action is the leading ovarian cancer charity in the UK. Ovarian Cancer Action funds research into ovarian cancer, raises awareness of the disease and gives a voice to women affected by it. Ovarian cancer kills 12 women a day in the UK, and survival rates are low at 40%, compared to 80% for breast cancer. We urgently need to raise £10million for the new Ovarian Cancer Action research centre, at Imperial College London – the UK’s first ever research facility entirely dedicated to ovarian cancer. Thanks to a large increase in research spending on breast cancer, survival rates have increased by over 20% in the last decade. Ovarian Cancer Action believes that, with the same input, we can make a similar impact on ovarian cancer.

My story

In September 2006, my mum died from Ovarian Cancer after an 18 month battle. I am aiming to run 2 marathons in 30 days (Berlin on September 28th and Dublin on October 27th) and raise as much money in the process for Ovarian Cancer Action.

Ovarian Cancer has a much lower survival rate than most other cancers and further funding is urgently needed to give more hope to future sufferers. Any donation you can make is greatly appreciated.
