aj's 3 peaks in 24hours · 28 May 2010

We're dedicated to beating blood cancer. We fund research and support those affected. Since 1960, we've invested over £500 million in blood cancer research, transforming treatments and saving lives. The day we beat blood cancer is now in sight and our researchers are determined to finish the job.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Pictured above is me. I am a 28yr old woman who 3 months before my wedding had the horrid news! my dad was ill, it was leukaemia and there was nothing that could be done to help him as it was to advanced, then i recently lost a very dear 26yr old friend to prostate cancer and if that was'nt enough to deal with, my brother became ill with a Blood Disorder know as TTP, this is a rare disorder. At times the world feel's very hard and unfair, i felt so many emotions but now i am doing something to make a difference.

I spoke long and hard with my dad about doing something to help, i decided i didnt want to do a normal walk or bike ride, i wanted to do something that would stay with me for life, an achievement something he would be proud of that would make him laugh but smile at the same time and i crazily came up with the idea of climbing the 3 peaks.

The pleasure of climbing the 3 peaks was at the cost of £350. A massive thank you to my Boss Phil Hayton of WESTCOTEC in dereham who kindly paid for me as my sponsorship as this was alot of money to find whilst trying to raise money to help my charity.

I choose Leukaemia & Lymphoma Research as this charity recieves no government support and all the money raised comes from you and me, voluntary contributions. Raising money is essential for this charity as it helps with vital research programmes to improve treatment, find cures and investigate the causes of leukaemia and all blood related disorders.

I know and understand that time's are hard for everyone. I have so much supprt from family and friends who are helpijng me through my hard times. Please take 5 mins to think and i bet you have been or know someone who has been affected by Leukaemia or cancer and please donate as much as you can spare, if everyone who took the time to read this page donated just £1.00 this would make a massive difference.

THANK YOU TO EVERYONE WHO DONATES AND SUPPORTS ME IN MY CHALLENGE
