Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
With 50% of the population likely to get cancer some time in their life time, now is the time to think how we treat and deal with this. Cancer has affected a couple of our family members and one in particular who is being supported by Maggie's #helpmaggies https://www.maggies.org/
Maggie’s Centres work with cancer patients and their families during a very difficult and life changing time. Maggie's idea was that with the right support, "nobody would lose the joy of living in the fear of dying" when diagnosed with cancer. She believed that with encouragement to become actively involved in treatment, and with the right information and support, people could change the way they live with cancer.
So what am I (Cat) doing? (Update 17.02.22)
Over lent I'll be running Online Stretch and Tone (yoga and Pilates inspired) classes. Wednesday 8pm starting 2nd March for 6 weeks.
These will be Facebook live in a private group. To join in please donate any amount and where it says to leave your name write your initials and fab2bfit with date and month you donate e.g. CAfab2bfit1702. When you then sign up to the group you will be asked to add this 'code' and once you are in, you can join in with as many sessions as you like. No minimum or maximum donation.
More info follow: http://www.facebook.com/fab2bfit.healthANDfitnesspage
I will be looking at doing zoom ones too.
Previous fundraising:
Over Breast Cancer awareness month (October 2021) I took various cakes (some home bakes by me and mum and some shop bought) to work and two of the churches I attend and raised £148.35. Along side these I designed and Leafprint/ Copydiss printed 100 leaflets with info for breast cancer awareness. (Other charities you can donate to are Breast Cancer Now https://breastcancernow.org/ and Pink Ribbon Foundation https://www.pinkribbonfoundation.org.uk/).
Why? Early detection saves lives - Know your breast.
Posted on facebook and raised a further £50
Sold some of my things £10
Plans on going:
Prhaps some face to face stretch and tone classes, or HIIT / bootcamp at my work, church or other places.
I will make plans over the next year for other projects - stay tuned.
