I've read Facebook posts for years and donated to cancer charities through "Just Giving", if I'm honest I didn't really appreciate how awful a time it is for everyone involved, patients and relatives. Many families, if not most families are eventually touched by and have to suffer through cancer at some point in their lives. Unfortunately now it's our turn. I would like to try and raise a bit of money for the Sandra Chapman centre at James Paget hospital. This day care centre runs solely on donations. So please can you consider sponsoring me through my Ironman Austria journey this year.

The Sandra Chapman centre delivers care and support to patients with malignant and non-malignant conditions, including blood disorders and cancers. Treatment for these conditions, investigative procedures and emergency care is performed in the unit.
Around fifty to sixty patients attend the Centre each day for treatments such as chemotherapy and blood transfusions.
Treatment, care and support are provided by a team of doctors and nurses with a wide range of specialised skills.
The Centre enables treatments to be given on a day care basis. This means patients who previously had to stay in hospital for several days can now remain at home and in the community as much as possible.
