Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.

Mike and Mayda Harragin have both suffered from Bowel Cancer in recent years. Mayda was diagnosed shortly after her 60th birthday in 2014 (thank God for the poo test), and after a year’s treatment has thankfully been in remission since late 2015. Mike was diagnosed soon after in early 2016 and is currently undergoing chemotherapy to treat secondary cancers.

We couldn’t have got through all this without the fantastic support from our family and friends, so we thought it would be lovely for the family to take part in Walk Together in London together. It might not be quite the same as running a marathon but it gives us a real opportunity to raise money towards getting rid of this awful disease. It’s also a great way to celebrate our 40th wedding anniversary the following day!

If you’re able to donate even a small amount to help us on our way we’d really appreciate it, and every £ raised up to £1000 will be matched by Barclays Bank.

Thank you so much for your support.
