Story

Thanks for visiting my JustGiving page!

I'm running the Oxford Half Marathon on the 13th October to raise money for the Oxford Colon Cancer Trust (and also as a bit of a  personal challenge!)

Oxford Colon Cancer Trust is a very practical charity, focusing on “making new treatments happen”. Whilst national high profile charities fund work on how cancer cells go wrong, OCCTOPUS has a more immediate focus. Originally formed in 2003 it aims to fund practical advances in treatment, education and research in these areas - the 3 “C’s” Colorectal cancer, Colitis and Crohns, and Continence. They help the colorectal team at the Oxford University Hospitals keep right up to date with and even ahead of advances in tools and techniques.

Any amount that you can donate would be so appreciated. Thank you very much!
