Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I’m really excited and motivated to ride 100 miles for Breast Cancer Care at Ride London100 at the end of July

Twelve months ago, my wife Susie after a routine mammogram was told she would have to have surgery to remove small amounts of cancerous tissue.  Despite a fear of hospitals & operations, she bravely went through 3 operations - However this wasn’t to be the end,  we were advised that as a precaution, Susie should undertake six months of chemotherapy, 3 weeks of radiotherapy, and 18 months of Herceptin (a 3 weekly injection into the leg).

Her journey is still ongoing but it was made easier with all the love and support of our amazing friends and family.  We were also given fantastic support, every step of the way by staff at Cheltenham, Gloucester and Hereford NHS hospitals. By supporting my 100 mile bike ride with a donation you can help provide funds for more free specialist support and advice to thousands of people who are diagnosed with breast cancer every year.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity. So it’s the most efficient way to donate – saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
