For my birthday this year I need no gifts at all, as I just love spending time with my amazing family and friends!

However, if anyone would like to contribute something toward a charity that has been a great source of support to me and my family (and will continue to be) throughout my diagnosis since September 2024, then I would love to help out the Maggie's Manchester Cancer Centre in my name! They are a place of calm and relaxation, situated next to the Christie Hospital where I have had my treatment, and it's always a pleasure to go in for a cup of tea and a chat with lovely people and professionals - they are truly excellent support for family and friends and they partner with other amazing charities like the Ruth Strauss Foundation who have been amazing at helping us handle things with our toddler too so they do amazing work ❤️

They took me hand in hand through (what would be very complicated!) paperwork processes to access various benefits I wouldn't have known about it, and made every step that little bit easier! To help then back in some way would be an absolute honour ❤️
