Story
Cancer has unfortunately touched our family 3 times in the last 10 years. I lost my mom to ovarian cancer in 2006 and Ruth lost her dad to throat cancer in 2010.
Then last year Ruth was diagnosed with breast cancer. Thanks to the fabulous staff at Dudley's Russells Hall hospital and the wonderful work and support of the charities Breast Cancer Care and Cancer Research Ruth's breast cancer has gone, her sanity is in tact (just) and she is on the way back to better health.

We will be starting our Cruise Against Cancer on Friday 12th August 2016 in Oldbury Town Centre, West Midlands, and returning back there on Tuesday 23rd August after circumnavigating the British coastline in a clockwise direction.
We would like any donations made to the Dudley Group NHS charity from Pier Pressure to go directly to the Georgina Ward C4 where Ruth had her chemotheraphy treatment and was looked after so brilliantly by wonderful staff.
any donations equally to all the charities if possible.
Remember: Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never share them with anyone or send you unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send
your money directly to the charity. They'll make sure Gift Aid (an additional 25%) is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer, too. That means more money goes to the charity, faster, with JustGiving.
