Story
On 4th September we are taking on ‘The Big Half’ – a half marathon around London’s famous landmarks. Whilst this is a task in itself (none of us consider ourselves ‘runners’), we are taking the challenge a step further by dressing up in emoji poo costumes!
We all work at Big C Cancer Charity, and whilst we see the amazing support the team can offer anyone affected by cancer, we all have our own personal stories. Following the charity’s recent awareness campaign around bowel cancer with an inflatable Big Bum touring various shows in East Anglia, we have decided to continue raising awareness around bowel cancer and the signs and symptoms to look out for.
If you’re able to support us by donating to our fundraiser, we’d be extremely grateful.
If we can help raise awareness and encourage people to check for signs and symptoms, it’s worth turning a few heads on the day.
