Story

As most of you will know I was diagnosed with sarcoma in March 2017 and I had never heard of this rare form of cancer. My journey was one I will never forget as I have the scar to last me a lifetime and I will never regain the full strength in my leg. I had this for 2 years before being diagnosed and the outcome could have been so different had I been diagnosed earlier. This is going to be real challenge for me but I can’t wait to give something back and fundraising for Sarcoma has always been an important thing for me, previously I raised £1000 having a charity fundraising night.  Fundraising is vital now more than ever to get people educated and diagnosed earlier. 

Thank you for visiting my page.I’m supporting Sarcoma UK, a national charity that funds vital research, offers support for anyone affected by sarcoma cancer and campaigns for better treatments. Sarcoma is a type of cancer that develops in the bone and soft tissue. It is difficult diagnose and one of the hardest to treat. By supporting me, we can help change this. Your donation will help researchers find answers, keep our Support Line open, and raise awareness to improve treatment and standards of care.Thank you for your support.
