Following some health issues, including hip pain in July 2024, I underwent several months of scans, tests and biopsies. The massively unexpected outcome from this was a diagnosis of Stage 4 Lymphoma at 27 years old.

The cancer was found in my hip, spine and shoulder. As a result, I continue to experience hip pain, which will make this walk a big challenge for me.

I was treated at the Haematology Oncology Unit at Airedale Hospital, where I underwent 7 rounds of chemotherapy and immunotherapy over 6 months. On some days, I spent up to 12 hours in the treatment room.

I am raising money to give something back to the unit that supported me through this very challenging time. My aim is to fund for more comfortable chairs for people receiving treatment, improving comfort and support during long and challenging days.

Thank you for helping me make a difference for others going through treatment.
