Story

Heidi and Thomas are looking to raise money for Cancer Research UK. In the name of Jack Gooding.

We have made different targets for the dye challenge. Each target means a different colour or style to dye our hair, with the ultimate target being £1,00 where we will both dye our hair in the rainbow colours.

Jack's story:

"Hi I'm Jack and I'm currently battling cancer for the 2nd time in my life!

I was first diagnosed at only the age of 5 where I was diagnosed with a rare and aggressive form of sarcoma called rabdomiosarcoma. When I was diagnosed I was already at stage 4 and was given 15% chance survival rate. I battled this for 2 full years with countless amounts of chemo and radiotherapy until I was finally given the all clear!

Fast forward 15 years and I have now been diagnosed for the 2nd time with another rare and incurable form of sarcoma called gastrointestinal neuroectodermal tumour or GNET for short. I am currently undergoing chemo at Addenbrooks hospital in Cambridge in the hopes to stabilise the tumour and prolong my life"

All donations will be appreciated
