Stephen's fundraiser for THE CHRISTIE CHARITY

Stephen Bird is raising money for THE CHRISTIE CHARITY

Walk of Hope · 19 September 2026 ·

The Christie charity provides enhanced services over and above what the NHS funds. Your support can help us to fund life-changing and potentially life-saving projects that will benefit cancer patients both now and in the future.

Story

This walk is dedicated to my sister, Angela, whose strength, courage, and determination continue to inspire me every day. It's also a deeply personal milestone for me, as I celebrate having beaten bowel cancer so far, thanks in no small part to the exceptional care and support I received. Together, our experiences have shown us just how important hope, compassion, and world-class treatment can be, and I want to give something back to help ensure others receive the same incredible care.

Every step I take in this 10K Walk of Hope is in support of The Christie and the incredible work they do, providing life-changing treatment, pioneering research, and compassionate care to patients and their families when they need it most.

I'll be taking on this challenge alongside my amazing family and friends, whose love and support have carried me through so much. While I hope to walk as much of the 10K as I can, the lasting effects of my own cancer journey mean I may not be able to complete the full distance. If that happens, my family and friends will proudly walk the remaining distance on my behalf, because this isn't just my journey—it's ours.

If you're able to, I'd be incredibly grateful for any donation, no matter how big or small. Your support will help make a real difference, giving hope to people and families affected by cancer and helping The Christie continue their vital work.

Thank you for supporting me, supporting Angela, and helping my family and me turn every step into something meaningful.
