Story
I'm walking 31 miles in October to transform the future of pancreatic cancer.
I am doing this challenge in the hope that further improvements can be made in the treatment and more importantly the detection of this dreadful disease. In 2019 I lost my mother, Annie to pancreatic cancer. An incidental finding and by then too late to operate. 3 months later I watched her pass away after fading to almost skin and bone. In 2021 I lost my lovely wife Maggie and although not the primary cause of death a stage 4 pancreatic cancer was found at post mortem. She had many symptoms but sadly not picked up by the hospital. I am angry and sad at the same time! Please give what you can for Annie and Maggie. Loved and missed every minute of every day x
We're facing a pancreatic cancer emergency. Too little has improved and too many people are dying. It's unacceptable that more than half of people diagnosed with pancreatic cancer die within 3 months. But thanks to your support, there is hope.
By donating to my challenge, you're making support available for people now and funding world-leading research to find that breakthrough in new treatments which is so desperately needed. Just £29 could fund further research to improve the speed of diagnosis.
By working together, our actions today can transform the future for people affected by pancreatic cancer.
Thank you so much for your support!
