As many of you will know, in 2008 my eldest daughter was diagnosed with cancer.  Olivia,  now 15 years old fought like crazy and survived everything that cancer could throw at her. Of course she did not do it alone, she did it with the help of the Royal Marsden where she spent many, many months slowing fighting that terrible disease. Together, they won, together Olivia and The Royal Marsden conquered cancer.  Now 11 years on, Olivia continues to empty my bank account but I would have it no other way. Olivia is alive and did not allow cancer to win! 

....And now I won’t let the Ride London 100 bike ride win - I will conquer it to raise money to help others like Olivia. Please donate generously. 

The Royal Marsden Cancer Charity raises money solely to support The Royal Marsden, a world-leading cancer centre. We ensure our nurses, doctors and research teams can provide the very best care and develop life-saving treatments, which are used across the UK and around the world. From funding state-of-the-art equipment and groundbreaking research, to creating the very best patient environments, we will never stop looking for ways to improve the lives of people affected by cancer.
