Thank you for visiting my JustGiving page.

This month I’ve decided to take part in Wessex Cancer Trust’s 'Ban it for Jan' to support their Crisis Appeal. Chocolate is a huge part of my life and this is a real struggle, please make worth it!

For 39 years Wessex Cancer Trust has been there for local people during the most difficult of times. When you, or a loved one, get a cancer diagnosis, it can be a huge shock for the whole family. The news is incredibly difficult to process and while the NHS does a very good job of providing clinical care, there are still so many other ways that the illness affects your life, mind, relationships and confidence. 

The charity currently supports over 11,000 people every year through its Cancer Support Centres through a drop-in service, professional counselling, complementary therapies, activities, support groups and courses. It also runs outreach services, a popular Sing for Life choir and transport on its Daisy Buses to help patients get to their hospital appointments.

In 2019 the charity saw a rise in the number of people using our Cancer Support Centres, but there was also a considerable drop in charitable income, which has resulted in a serious gap in funding which has tipped us into crisis point.

Thank you for all your donations and moral support xx
