On Sunday 12th May 2024, I will be walking the “Breast Walk Ever” half marathon, with 3 of my amazing friends.

 We are hoping to raise as much funds as possible for “Against Breast Cancer”, a charity who use specialised research to improve the outlook for those affected by breast cancer. Their research is focused on preventing secondary spread with a unique approach to prevention, detection and treatment.

 Their research teams operate at several of the UK’s leading academic institutions targeting -

Prevention - how diet and lifestyle may increase or reduce your risk of developing secondary breast cancer, providing sound, evidence-based advice relevant to a UK population.

Detection - how to design better tools for earlier diagnosis of secondary breast cancer to increase survival rates.

Therapies - how the body’s natural defences could be harnessed to design more effective treatments and ultimately a vaccine against breast cancer.

 Having recently completed 14 months of my own treatment for breast cancer, this is a charity I feel very strongly about supporting.

Thank you in advance for anything you can spare, to help this incredible charity continue with their research.
