Story
I had an epiphany not so long ago - I realised I didn't do a thing to help others, so I've decided that this year is my charity year! This particular event is for Cancer Research UK.
The statistics are scary - 1 in 3 of us will develop some form of cancer in our lifetime. Have a think about the people you love and think about how you would feel if they got the diagnosis. I don't want any of us to feel that we didn't do enough to prevent it. By taking part or donating even £1 you can make sure you don't get that sinking feeling that you could have done more.
Please, please, please just sponsor me even a few pence! If you donate the cost of just 1 doughnut, coffee or sandwich you will have helped others and probably reduced your own chances of diabetes, heart disease or even cancer itself!
The blurb from Cancer Research UK:
"Events like Race for Life are vital in funding Cancer Research UK's life-saving work into preventing, diagnosing and treating cancer. By sponsoring me, we can unite and create a force that cancer can't ignore."
Gift Aid it!
If you're a UK taxpayer, please remember to tick the Gift Aid box as this will increase your donation by at least 25% at no cost to you.
One day we will beat cancer. Help us make it sooner.
