Lynch Syndrome UK aims to ensure that people and their families affected by Lynch Syndrome are provided with support, information, and signposting. We also aim to increase public awareness of Lynch Syndrome by educating members of the general public and healthcare professionals for public benefit.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

In July 2024 I received confirmation that I was a carrier of the MSH6 Lynch Syndrome variation gene, as such in February 2025 I had risk reducing surgery in the form of a full hysterectomy as this was the biggest risk for my variation. However I still need to have regular tests every 2 years to keep an eye on the other main cancer risk associated with this genetic mutation condition.

I want to raise money for Lynch Syndrome UK to help continue their great work in spreading awareness of this very unknown condition so that more people can be tested & diagnosed before they develop cancer rather than afterwards.

The more research that can be funded the easier it will be for future generations to deal with their possible diagnosis.
