Race for Life London - Clapham 10k 2012 · 4 July 2012 ·
For some time now I have wanted to do some sort of Sponsored run or event and never really known which charity to raise for. There are a few causes close to my heart such as The Alzheimers Society and The Stroke Association but nothing touches more of our lives than Cancer. Earlier this year I had a small cancer scare and being the drama queen I am, I was very concerned, it kept me up at night and I mostly kept it to myself. I was lucky but one in three of us will be diagnosed with cancer in our lives or know someone close to us that suffers with it. I have had relatives beat cancer and I have also known people who weren't so lucky.
I truly believe that if we all chipped in that cancer could be cured but not all of us give believing 'it won't happen to me' or 'my money won't make a difference'. If we all had this mentality we'd be in a terrible position, cancer research wouldn't have advanced and many people would die who could otherwise be saved. Small donations add up, even if you're skint and can only give a little I will be truly grateful. So please sponsor me and by all means come and support me on the Race for Life night, even if it is just to have a laugh at me running about like a fool :-D. If there are any ladies who want to join me, let me know, I'd love to not have to do it alone.
The online Sponsorship site is completely save and if you are a UK taxpayer, please remember to tick the Gift Aid box when donating as this will increase your donation by at least 25% at no cost to you.
Every pound you donate really does make a difference - so please sponsor me now!
Many thanks for your support. Together we will beat cancer.
