Nearly 1 in 2 people will be diagnosed with cancer in their lifetime.

2 in 1 ….. that’s a scary statistic … you or your partner? You or your best friend ? It makes me sad to think about it.

Saying that … the research so far means that more people are getting through it ..living longer with it… but they need to do more research and they therefore need more money.

Every pound you donate makes a difference to Cancer Research UK's ground breaking work.

I was one of the lucky ones diagnosed quickly, surgery, radiotherapy and then done.. or so I thought - actually one of the worst bits of cancer for me was the ongoing treatment and its side affects. Other people aren’t as lucky going through chemo and radiotherapy with all the impacts it has on people’s lives.
