On the 28th January 2022, I had the dreaded news that no one likes to hear.

‘Miss Turner in the WHO organisation you do have blood cancer.’ I have been diagnosed with a rare myloproliferative disorder.

Everyone’s journey is different. Some will live for years, others not so lucky.

So fingers crossed, I will keep fighting and beat this disease and have many many years to live and watch my gorgeous Son grow.

So I'd like to give something back and raise money for this amazing fund. They have helped me so much over the last couple of years and continue to help and I would like to thank them.

With my family and friends, we have made this amazing hamper. Every pound donated, you will get a ticket to win this beautiful hamper.

I will draw the winner on the 21st December.

Good luck.

Robert was born in Poole and led an accomplished life; he was a self-made man who achieved many of his ambitions through hard work and determination.

Through legacy and donation he was able to leave a tangible asset that would benefit the community for many years to come.

Robert wanted to help those, like him, faced with the challenge of cancer. By establishing The Robert White Legacy Fund he has already enabled a number of projects to progress that will make a real difference for the cancer patients of Dorset.

Donations will be used for the additional items not readily available from the NHS. This will be small items to make the path of a cancer patient easier and larger equipment that will ensure that Dorset is a beacon of excellence in Cancer care.

Robert White Legacy Fund is part of University Hospitals Dorset NHS Charity, registered charity no. 1057366.
