ALK-positive lung cancer is a rare disease that often affects younger non-smokers, many with young children. It is usually diagnosed at Stage 4, when there is no cure. We support, empower and advocate for best practice to improve the overall survival and quality of life of patients across the UK.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I have decided to raise money for ALK Positive UK. This is a charity close to my heart. Nearly a year ago my mum was diagnosed with lung cancer having never smoked a cigarette in her life. I have learnt a lot and thanks to my amazing brother for finding this group on Facebook - ALK Postive UK, this support group has been life saving (literally) for us. Our mum has a very rare (5% of people have in the world) form of lung cancer which is a genetic mutation called ALK Positive. For anyone interested please see below link for the ALK Positive UK website.

Any donations will be very welcome and very much appreciated. Thank you to everyone for all your support. I want to help cure lung cancer, this is possible.
