I'm fundraising for Bowel Cancer UK

Bowel Cancer UK is the UK's leading bowel cancer charity and we're determined to save lives and improve the quality of life of everyone affected by bowel cancer.

I’m diving into Swim15 this August and raising money to help save lives and improve the quality of life of everyone affected by bowel cancer. The money I raise will help to provide support and information to patients and their families, fund and support research into bowel cancer and support campaigns for early diagnosis and best treatment and care for all. 

Bowel cancer is the UK's second biggest cancer killer with more than 16,500 people dying annually of a disease that is preventable, treatable and curable.

Why Bowel Cancer?

Saturday 10th Aug
As a survivor myself I know the importance of research and medical help and support. Losing my Dad to this and other cancers last week I needed to do something. We never get the time back we have lost so live every moment like it’s your last. 

Over 5 miles in 👍
