Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I am planning to cycle a total of 218 miles /354 km over 6 days from the east coast Costa Rica to Playa Hermosa to raise funds- flipping heck!!!

I have funded myself a third of the total £3,300 to cover flights and accommodation so the money raised by everyone's kind gestures goes straight to the charities

Ovarian, Breast and Cervical Cancers affect many thousands every year.Almost 6 in 10 Ovarian Cancer cases are diagnosed at a late stage.This is because symptoms are often dismissed as something else  ie IBS.Breast cancer care is improving and 78% of patients diagnosed now survive for 10 or more years.Cervical Cancer mortality rates have reduced by 24% in Uk over the past 10 years.Amazing charities such as Ovarian Cancer Action,Breast Cancer Care and Jo's Cervical Cancer Trust help provide support, information, improve survival rates, fund research and much more
