"Cancer is a disease that can impact anyone at any time in their lives, and breast cancer is still second most common cause of female cancer death in the UK. 

Men are not exempt and survival rates are improving, however the key to this is early diagnosis, and this can be improved through awareness. 

The Ladies Charity Race aims to support both women in motorsport and increase awareness of breast cancer by gathering a group of tenacious and like-minded women to compete in the first ladies only charity race with No Limits Racing. Many of the competitors have experienced the impact of cancer, either themselves, a friend or family member. In some cases we have lost loved ones and want to raise money to support awareness of breast cancer. By racing together we can show the world how strong we are and that we can help others to be strong too."

Personally, when I first learnt about the idea of the race, I absolutely jumped at the chance to get involved and be a part of something that has never been done before. Taking place on Sunday 1st September 2019, it will be exciting, exhilarating and hard hitting to say the least. 

Like many others, I have seen first hand how cancer affects those close to us, along with the family/friends surrounding them; a tortuous disease, and the most testing of periods in many lives. Being so passionate about my motorbike (as you probably already gather!!), mixed with a cause extremely close to my heart, I couldn't think of a more perfect way to raise both awareness and money in aid of such a deserving cause.

If you have a penny or a pound, any contribution will be massively appreciated. So, come on guys, please dig deep and sponsor me in a once in a lifetime, never been done before, race of solidarity amongst like-minded women racers!!
