Did you know that every year in the UK, we lose 11,200 people to breast cancer?
Prevent Breast Cancer’s mission is to make breast cancer a preventable disease for future generations by funding vital research into its prediction, prevention, and early detection, so that no one has to go through it in the first place.
Cancer will likely touch the families of most people that we know, so it is essential that this research takes place to prevent it from affecting more people. In order to raise money, I have taken on the challenge of abseiling down the Lloyd's building in London. The Lloyd’s building (often called the "Inside-Out Building") is located on Lime Street in the City of London, and is celebrated for its radical "high-tech" architecture, which leaves its service components—like elevators and pipes—exposed on the exterior. The Lloyd's building is 88 metres (289 ft) to the roof, with 14 floors. On top of each service core stand the cleaning cranes, increasing the overall height to 95.10 metres (312 ft).
I am terrified, but also excited to take on this challenge for such a good cause. Any donation, no matter the size, will help this research continue. Thank you for your support!
