Story

The Swallows Head & Neck Cancer Support Charity

As I continue to recover from tongue and neck cancer and kicking Tony out once and for all, running (and the gym, Hiit classes and more recently wild swimming) has been a big part of my recovery and every step I take is a step I thought I would not take but here I am giving it everything I have each day.

The Swallows Charity supports all people affected by head and neck cancers, patients, carers friends or relatives. The patient is the focus for support, help and signposting, however the role of carers and others is vital too, with their own support needs often overlooked. It is our intention for every person affected by head and neck cancer to have access to support at the point they need it and by the method off their choice on a 24/7 basis. This could be by telephone, email or social media.

I will not run my fastest time but I will train and give it everything on the day to help raise funds for this essential charity.

Ta very much in advance.

Dotty xx
