Finding Cyril · 14 June 2016

We raise money solely to support The Royal Marsden, a world-leading cancer centre. From funding state-of-the-art equipment and ground-breaking research, to creating the very best patient environments, we will never stop looking for ways to improve the lives of people affected by cancer.

Story

Laura is a 33 year old primary school teacher living in London. She was diagnosed with stage 3 ovarian cancer in June 2016. She had a recurrence of the cancer 2 1/2 years later in the lead up to her wedding. She is now clear of cancer again and almost three years past the recurrence. During this time, she has a had a preventative mastectomy to deal with her increased breast cancer risk.  Together with her husband (also a cancer survivor), family and friends, we aim to raise awareness  about the BRCA 1 mutation and ovarian cancer through articles, pictures and anecdotes as well as raise money for the hospital she is being treated at.
