Story

March is Myeloma Awareness Month. For those who may not know, just over two years ago, I received what felt like the worst news imaginable. Thankfully, the situation wasn't as dire as initially diagnosed. However, I am now on a test, review, and monitor programme. Many others have not been so fortunate.

Following my diagnosis, I connected with the incredible individuals at the West Lancs and Merseyside Myeloma Support Group. Their support has been invaluable in navigating this journey. On Sunday, March 15th, I will be running the Wigan Half Marathon, and on April 19th, both James and I will participate in the West Lancs Spring Triathlon. These events are not just personal challenges; they are opportunities to raise essential funds for the fantastic work done by this group.

Your contributions will directly support patients and provide hope to those impacted by myeloma by creating a safe space to discuss their challenges. Every donation is greatly appreciated and will make a significant difference in someone's life. Help us make a difference today! #MyelomaAwareness #FundTheFight
