Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I was inspired to run for CLIC Sargent after learning about the work they do for children and young people who have been diagnosed with cancer. 

Having two young children myself I cannot imagine the devastation such news would bring or to even begin to cope as a family. Knowing that such an organisation as CLIC Sargent exists and is able to offer support to children, young people and their families and is reliant upon voluntary donations to keep going moved me into action.

Did you know that today, 11 children and young people in the UK will hear the devastating news they have cancer.

£4 could pay for a CLIC Sargent storybook that explains childhood cancer to children in simple, easy to understand language

£15 could pay for a copy of CLIC Sargent’s DVD to help bereaved families understand and cope with their grief

£46 could pay for a CLIC Sargent Social Worker to be there soon after diagnosis, giving a family one-to-one support

Thank you again for visiting and listening, if you could help with sponsorship that would be amazing!

Much obliged,

Ed
