Im taking part in the Sunrise Trek 2021 to raise money for Bowel Cancer UK. Theyre the UK's leading bowel cancer charity and are determined to save lives and improve the quality of life of everyone affected by bowel cancer. Bowel cancer is the UK's second biggest cancer killer with over 16,000 people dying annually of a disease that is preventable, treatable and curable. Im determined to help Bowel Cancer UK to change that. The money you donate will help to provide support and information to patients and their families, enable them to fund and support research into bowel cancer and to campaign for early diagnosis and best treatment and care for all.

Chris received the diagnosis of inoperable metastatic colorectal cancer in August 2020. He died in September 2020, surrounded by his loving family. He was only 36.  Chris was an amazing human being. The effect he had on so many lives has just been magnified since he died. If we can give Bowel Cancer UK as much money as possible, it will not only be a great tribute to a beautiful man but will also go towards helping others to not have to go through such a devastating time. I watched the romance between Chris and Kat play out from the very beginning when we were 18 years old, two wonderful personalities and talents which are now combined in their fantastic young children. Their story should not have been ended this way. 

Thank you so much for your support and donation in Chris' name.
