Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
On Wednesday 1st October I will be taking to the catwalk once again in the Breast Cancer Care fashion show. All of the models who take part in this special event, like me, have experienced a diagnosis of breast cancer. The show is an amazing occasion of fashion, fundraising and inspiration proving that you can look and feel great after breast cancer.
Last years show was a fantastic event raising over £350,000 and this money made a vital difference to Breast Cancer Care. The reality is that there are more than half a million people in the UK today who have been diagnosed with breast cancer and every year another 50,000 hear the devastating news that they have the disease.
I was diagnosed in 2008 which seems ages ago. I had chemotherapy and then radiotherapy. I then started a small business and will be a Liberal Democrat Prospective Parliamentary Candidate at the 2015 General Election. I still ski and my golf handicap has come down. This shows there is life after breast cancer. I did the Fashion Show in 2009 so this year it is 5 years on from that fantastic event.
Thanks to the generosity of people like you supporting The Show, Breast Cancer Care is here for every one of them, providing expert information and skilled emotional and practical support when its needed most.
Thank you for sponsoring me and showing your support!
