Thank you for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. During the past four years I have taken part in three running events and a cycling challenge to support Breakthrough Breast Cancer and I very much appreciate the sponsorship I’ve received from patients, former patients and their families.

This year, I’m taking part in Pedal for Scotland’s event so on Sunday 7th September I will be cycling 47 miles from Glasgow to Edinburgh. I would be so grateful for any support you can give. All of the money raised will help Breakthrough continue to save lives and change futures throughout Scotland.

As a breast cancer surgeon I am well aware of the devastating impact that breast cancer has on thousands of women across Scotland, which is why funding Breakthrough’s work is essential. Managing breast cancer is frustrating. I know we could do better for patients if we had a better understanding of how drugs work, and why sometimes they don’t. The only way we will better understand breast cancer is to do more research. Funding our work gives me hope that we will, through research, be able to treat patients more effectively and ultimately give more of them a future without the fear of breast cancer returning.

Please help us continue to save lives by donating now to support our work. With your help we can stop breast cancer for good.

I can’t do this without you. Thank you so much.

Mike
