I'm joining Cancer Research UK's Race for Life this year. I really want to raise some money for a charity I don't do enough for and owe a lot to. 

It will also be a great achievement for myself training for the walk/run, especially now my fitness is improving. I have always been asked to join in, by friends and haven't had the confidence to do so. After breaking my leg in 2014, I can't think of a more worthy cause to get up and do something I am proud of as well as raise some money for a fantastic charity.

I am really pleased that my friends and family have agreed to join me (and a big thank you to Kat Pulley for planting the idea in my head!)

If you are able to spare a few pennies for Cancer Research, it would be very much appreciated and it will be an honour to (hopefully) run most of the way round to raise some money for a very worthy cause.

Events like this are vital in funding Cancer Research UK's life-saving work into preventing, diagnosing and treating cancer. By sponsoring me, we can unite and create an army that cancer can't ignore. By sponsoring me, we will beat cancer sooner.

Don't forget to add Gift Aid

If you're a UK taxpayer, please remember to tick the Gift Aid box as this will increase your donation by at least 25% at no extra cost to you.
