Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page 😊

St Mark's do pioneering, life saving work for people with Bowel disease. I was referred to St Mark's after my bowel cancer returned and became complex, too complex for my local hospital, I was then 38. I've just had my big 40th Birthday, a day I didn't think I'd ever see but I have and it's all thanks to St Mark's, Mr Antoniou, Hugh, Claire and the rest of the team. ❤

I've done a few charity events for Bowel Cancer UK since my first diagnosis in 2017 and this year, my focus is raising funds for the people who saved my life. I am a keen runner but I wanted to do something a bit different and I've taken to Up-Cycling what some might deem as junk, to make it beautiful again. I find painting very relaxing and it focuses my mind away from the worry of cancer. I've nearly painted everything in my home and now my children and husband are worried that if they stand still long enough they'll turn dusky blush too 😆.

If you see an up-cycled item you would like to buy or would just like to make a donation to St Mark's I would be truely greatful. 

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

Lots of Love
