The whole of October is Breast Cancer Awareness month with one day, 13.10.20, being dedicated to Secondary Breast Cancer Awareness. 

I was diagnosed with Primary Breast Cancer in February 2014 and then with secondary, metastatic, incurable breast cancer, in my liver and lymph nodes in October 2019. There is no cure. 

On Saturday 17th October, me, my daughter and husband and my amazingly fantastic colleagues will make a socially-distanced trek from Shipley Glen to Baildon Moor and then over to Ilkley Moor to raise money for the secondary breast cancer charity, Make 2nds Count.

Secondary breast cancer is breast cancer which has spread from the breast to other parts of the body. Although secondary breast cancer can be treated, there is no cure. Unlike those living with primary breast cancer, there is no end of treatment, there is no remission. It’s estimated that 35,000 people are currently living with secondary breast cancer in the UK yet only 7% of the National funding for cancer goes towards this incurable disease. Make 2nds Count aim to address this imbalance. Please give generously!
