Story

We're a community dedicated to beating blood cancer. We do this by funding research and supporting those affected. Since 1960, we've invested over £500 million in blood cancer research, transforming treatments and saving lives. Right now, our community is funding 360 researchers and staff across the UK who are searching for the next breakthrough. The day we will beat blood cancer is now in sight and the researchers are determined to finish the job.

A few months ago I was diagnosed with polycythemia vera a rare chronic blood cancer which effects the bone marrow in turn it thickens the blood which can lead to either heart attack, strokes and pulmonary embolism and currently there is no cure for this type of cancer.

As most of you know when having chemotherapy you loose your hair so what I have decided to do is raise funds by shaving my head which will be on Friday the 2nd of may and a full body wax which will be in around 3 weeks time.

I am not asking you for large amounts to help me reach £1000 for each charity the other 1 being macmillan Cancer Support ♋️, i would prefer it if I get thousands of people to donate just £1 each.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank you all in advance for your kind support and were possible could you pass this onto your friends and family.

A big shout out to bobby of Enrich beauty in Northampton for offering her services free of charge to do the body waxing
