Story

Unfortunately we do all know someone who has been affected in some way by Breast Cancer. Whether remotely, within our close circle or within our family, this disease affects us all in some way. Fund raising for Cancer charities is imperative and I have chosen to support one that I am familiar with, Breast Cancer UK. 

I will be detaching myself from my desk, picking up the dog lead (with dog attached!) and do something that my family have nagged me to do for ages .... start walking! 

I have signed up for Push for Prevention a 30 day, 1000 minute exercise challenge. This will be a mixture of outside walking and, because we live in England, at home exercise for the wet days. Doesn't sound much to some people but its a start for me and your support will be appreciated.

Cancer affects families in many different ways and anything I can do, sorry, WE CAN DO to destroy this vile disease has got to be positive and worthwhile. 

I'll be pushing myself to get active everyday to hit my target and I'd be so grateful if you can push your hand into your pocket and donate for this important charity. 

Breast Cancer UK is working to prevent breast cancer so that less women and men have to go through the devastating impact of being diagnosed. Your support could help make a difference. Together we can prevent breast cancer.

Thank you x
