Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page. Myself, Ann Shepperley and Therese Rydberg have decided to walk for 13 miles. Not because we are mad (although that could be part of it...), but because we all know someone who has been affected by cancer, and we want to do our bit to make sure this becomes a disease of the past.

Here are some examples of what your kind donation can do:

• £10 could buy enough glass slides for a scientist to examine 300 tumour samples down a microscope.
• £100 could equip four scientists with a lab coat and a pair of safety goggles. These help protect against harmful chemicals and prevent experiments from getting contaminated.
• £500 could fund one cancer information nurse for four days. Our experienced cancer information nurses provide a confidential service for anyone with concerns about cancer.
• £1,000 could cover the basic costs for ten women to take part in a clinical trial to improve survival for post-menopausal women with early-stage breast cancer.

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.

Please don't forget to tick Gift Aid - it doesn't cost you a penny, and allows the Cancer Research to claim a little more money - and every penny counts!
