Story

Hi all,

I’m Cheryl and I am 59 years old, I have recently been diagnosed with stage 3 breast cancer, I have been told  it’s curable, however it is going to be a long hard journey of treatment and surgery to get through first.

Unfortunately cancer doesn’t give you much choice or control about how things happen, but this is where I am taking control!

During chemotherapy I have been told I will lose my hair, so I am choosing to Brave the Shave but I am not only raising money for Macmillan, I will also donating my hair to The Little Princesses Trust to make a difference and help create wigs for children who have/will suffer from medically induced hair loss.

Any donations, no matter how small would make a massive difference. 

Just a quick thank you for taking the time to read.   




Thanks for supporting my fundraising. At Macmillan, we give people with cancer everything we’ve got. If you’re diagnosed, your worries are our worries. We’re doing whatever it takes. But without your help we can’t support everyone who needs us.Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs.
