Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I am running the 5k Race for Life this weekend 21st May to benefit Nicola's Fund and Cancer Research. 

Please see our Event page here: https://fundraise.cancerresearchuk.org/team/patty-noemis-team

JustGiving Funds will support 100% Nicola's Fund. Nicola was beautiful, clever, talented, funny, warm, mischievous and very kind. Small in stature, with a huge and dirty laugh -she sparkled for us all. Her gifts in drama and dance recognised at her first school, Merton House were developing exciting way at Hammond School, Chester, before her illness brought her future plans to an abrupt end.

For three years she fought a courageous battle with a malignant brain tumour, before she lost that fight and died 5 days before her 15th birthday on April 20th 2005. During her lengthy, protracted treatment, Nicola faced the trials of chemotherapy and radiotherapy with great bravery. Although she was often in pain she managed to sustain her family and friends with her high spirits and her laughter.

The charity was Nicola's idea and helps families with a week's holiday in Centre Parcs with all expenses paid, or Black Rock Sand caravan, so the whole family can enjoy a weeks respite during very difficult times, capturing some great memories.
