Help Sheila to make a real difference

I'm raising money for Ovacome, who provide support and information to those affected by ovarian cancer. This cause means a lot to me, and I hope that you'll consider contributing towards their work. It's 10 years in August since I began my journey and it's about time I gave something back!

Help Lucy to make a real difference

I'm raising money for Ovacome, who provide support and information to those affected by ovarian cancer. This cause means a lot to me as in 2012 my mum was diagnosed with ovarian cancer. Unfortunately she passed away just a few months after her diagnosis. I have since discovered Ovacome and am amazed by the work they do for those affected by ovarian cancer. I hope that you'll consider contributing towards their work.
