After losing my Mum to cancer, I have always wanted to raise money to help out people going through the pain and battle against Cancer.

We want to support cancer patients and sufferers locally on Gran Canaria. We work with patient associations, created by sufferers and cancer survivors, to look after the psychological and emotional needs of the patient as well as their immediate family.

While lots of Spanish state money nationally goes to large cancer research and medical treatment organisations, after treatment care and patient support during recovery in Spain is not well provided.

It falls to locally organised groups to try to provide the necessary emotional and psychological support with experience based information to help not only the sufferer feel that they can get through the challenge ahead of them, but also to provide support for their life partners and even their children to help them understand what is happening, and how they can stay positive and help to be part of overcoming the challenges they face.

We want residents and visitors to Gran Canaria to join us in the message that by working together we can all cross mountains, no matter high, no matter how far we have to go to successfully get to the end of the journey we must face.
