In February last year, my Aunty Anna passed away from bowel cancer. She was just 41 years old and left behind 2 young children, her loving husband and wider family and friends who love her very much. I will be doing the Bike Chester 29 mile bike ride with my mum to help raise money to prevent this happening to other families too.
