We’re Breast Cancer Now, the charity that’s steered by world-class research and powered by life-changing care. We’re here for anyone affected by breast cancer, the whole way through, providing support for today and hope for the future. By 2050, we believe everyone diagnosed with breast cancer will live – and be supported to live well. But we need to act now.

Story

I spend my days supporting people through breast cancer.

Last year, I found myself on the other side, scared, waiting, and needing that same support.

I’m a specialist breast cancer pharmacist working for the NHS, and I see firsthand the physical and emotional toll this disease takes, alongside the extraordinary bravery and resilience people show even in the toughest moments.

Last year, I found a lump in my own breast and despite my clinical background, the fear and uncertainty were overwhelming.

During that time, the charity I’m fundraising for was there for me, offering support, reassurance, and understanding when I needed it most.

No one should have to face that fear alone.

That’s why I’m running. To give back. To say thank you. And to help ensure that support is there for the next person who needs it.

If you can donate, or simply share this post, it would mean the world.

Let’s do this together, one step at a time. 💗
