Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.

Susan Lewis lost her mother, Eddress, to breast cancer when she was thirty three years old and Susan was nine. This was back at a time when women, even doctors, spoke in hushed tones about the dreaded Big C. Nothing was discussed, no counselling offered; there was even a kind of shame attached to having fallen victim to this terrible disease. Luckily, all that has changed. Today someone is always there to offer advice and support to those who need it, or simply to lend an ear if all that’s required is to talk. Many of these people are doctors, nurses, or members of the healthcare professions; but just as many are women who selflessly give up their time to be there for those in need. Stephanie Harrison of Breast Cancer Care is one of these very special people, and it is because of her that we have become associated with this extremely worthwhile organisation.

11th May will be the anniversary of Eddress's death so we will be walking for her and for all the other brave women who are affected by this terrible disease.
