Story

Firstly, thank you for taking the time to visit my Just Giving page.

After being diagnosed with Breast Cancer in July 2015, I was quickly referred to The Nightingale Cancer Support Centre.  They offered to be there to support me throughout my treatment and also organised for me to have a series of free therapy sessions which included things like reflexology and massage which were extremely welcome when undergoing chemo and its not so welcome side effects. The Nightingale team always had time for me and provided me with lots of advice when I needed it. 

They offer much more support than I have mentioned but the therapy sessions were the best thing for me at the time as they helped me to relax; in addition, they offer Mindfulness Workshops, Pilates and Yoga classes, counselling sessions and much more.

Most of the team there work voluntary and do an amazing job and for that, I would like to raise money to help them as my way of returning the favour. 

Thankfully, I am one of the lucky ones and after a year's treatment I am now fully recovered and my only problem now is waiting for my hair to thicken and my eyebrows to grow back as I am useless at applying fake ones!

Please help me to raise lots of money for the Nightingale Centre so that they can continue their good work.

Thank you for your support!
