We focus on early diagnosis and awareness to improve survival of pancreatic cancer

Story

in 2014, after 10 of being diagnosed, I lost my amazing, strong and down right brilliant mum to pancreatic cancer. This shook our world and things have never been the same since. We miss her wit, positive attitude and strength. She was truely the backbone of our family and there is always something missing. Not a lot is known about this illness because the symptoms are so common with other things but with your help we can spread the message and get more awareness for the 'silent killer' Not enough funding is giving to this disease and because of this the survival rate is incredibly low. 

TNext year I am taking part in my biggest challenge to date the London marathon. I never ever thought I would ever do a marathon but I am determined to do whatever it takes to help this close to my charity in my mums memory. Thank you for your help. 

Miss you always Don 💜💜💜💜
