The number of people diagnosed with cancer is growing, we're doing whatever it takes to help more people with cancer get the best care the UK has to offer, whoever and wherever they are. To donate, volunteer, raise money or campaign with us, call 0300 1000 200 or visit macmillan.org.uk

Story

As some of you may know, my father-in-law Tom Whiston, was diagnosed with terminal pancreatic cancer in November 2008. During what is a very difficult time for my family, Macmillan have provided him with invaluable care and support which  has made him feel much more secure and in control of what happens to him.

So for that reason, I would like to raise as much as I can to help support their work now and in the future.

(Tom's experience of cancer is sadly part of what appears to be a larger story that has been subject to some media attention - for more information go to:  www.guardian.co.uk/education/2009/jan/13/manchester-university-cancer-research
)

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Macmillan Cancer Support gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.

So please sponsor me now!
