Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

In May 2011 my mother-in-law lost her 18 month battle against Ovarian Cancer.  After watching a close loved one go through that and what effect it has had on the immediate family, I have decided I want to try and do my bit to help others.

If I can contribute to such a great cause like Cancer Research that relies solely on donations and receives no government funding, its not a lot to ask.

This is such a great charity, and I'm sure Cancer has effected us all in some way either family member, family friend, someone at work, a friend of a friend.  I'm sure we all know someone.

I know things are not great at the moment with recession talk and the increased price of living, but all I ask if you can spare any amount to this great cause then please do.

Myself and a couple of friends are going to do a 75 mile bike ride on the 5th May around the Isle of Wight, it is not going to be easy but knowing why we are doing it will make it easier.  I will make sure I keep you all updated with my progress.

So please dig deep and donate now.

Again Thank You so much for your time to read this and your donation.
