Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

My name is Mark Fradgley. I am known as the Bullheart, due to the fact that I had part of my heart removed and replaced with bovine pericardium after being diagnosed with cancer in 2009. After some tough chemotherapy I decided to dedicate some of my time to raising money for a range of charitable causes. 

Last year I suffered a setback when my cancer came back. I spent six months having chemotherapy and finally surgery, the end result being the full resection of my lat dorsi muscle in my back. During this time I was struck by the resilience of the children I shared my treatment with at UCLH, and the courage of their families. With this in mind, and having personal experience of the effects of cancer on a family I have decided to raise money for the UCLH Fight for Life children's cancer fund.

You can find more details about the fund at http://www.fightforlife.org/

Kids are brilliant. I'm humbled by how they deal with a frightening and difficult situation such as cancer. Walking up a mountain with a 40kg fridge on my back will be tough, but if you help me help them it'll be worth every step.

You can find out more about me, my journey through cancer and the money we've raised so far at www.team-bullheart.uk

Thank you for your support.
