Bupa Great North Run 2012 · 16 September 2012 ·

The volunteers at Cancer Connections have experienced cancer themselves and help other people through their cancer journey. The aim of Cancer Connections is to help patients and their loved ones and carers, in South Tyneside, to return to normal life and enjoy again their family, work and leisure.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

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 and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

I'm sure many of you are aware I lost my best friend and wife to breast cancer last year, Amanda was always planning on doing the Great North Run so I thought I'd give it a go this year in her memory.  Cancer Connections have been a great help to myself and my friends and family since I lost her, they have also helped another good friend and they need charitable donations to be able to help others in the future.

I know I've asked for donations before for other fundraisers, and I will continue to ask you for your donations in the future for other events, but I feel this is a very worthwhile charity that has a direct impact on the people around you who live in the area.  In fact, I'll bet that you know someone who has been helped in some way by Cancer Connections.

So please dig deep and donate now, however small your donation may be, it will be greatly received.

Thankyou
