Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.

This trip has been self funded so all funds raised will go to the benefit of cancer patients.

In July 2014 we will be completing  a 12 day trek in Morocco:

  • 3 peaks over 4000m

  • total ascent 9500m (9 Mt Snowdon)

  • over 72 hrs walking

  • covering 143km

Follow our training progress on our Facebook page or on our Blog

In aid of a new treatment for breast cancer; Intra-Operative Breast Radiotherapy.

The treatment includes a single dose of radiotherapy which is given when the breast tumour is removed and takes about 30 mins, conventional radiotherapy treatment commences several weeks after the tumour is removed.

We’ve known friends with breast cancer, they put their lives on hold while they spent weeks having radiotherapy, this new treatment could have reduced their treatment time.  It is worth investing in.

This service will be part of an international clinical trail and could be the future of breast cancer treatment.
