Help me to make a difference to those affected by ovarian cancer

Can you help me make a real difference to the life of someone affected by ovarian cancer?

I’m taking part in the Womens Run Series London - 10km - October event on 11-10-2025. And I will be  raising funds for Ovacome, the national UK charity focused on providing support and information to anyone affected by Ovarian Cancer. Ovacome is a strong community for those who have been diagnosed, those who think that they might be at risk, friends and family, and healthcare professionals.

Ovacome exists to reduce isolation, provide expert information, promote understanding of ovarian cancer and its symptoms, and to support those affected by it in their time of need.  

Ovacome’s specialist support team is there to help those living with ovarian cancer navigate their treatment, care and life beyond the disease through the charity’s telephone support line, email, and 24-hour forum. Ovacome also hosts online and in-person groups, workshops, and events where people affected can meet others in similar circumstances, share advice, make friends, and offer encouragement to one another in a safe environment.

Ovacome receives no government funding and so relies on its donors and fundraisers to make its life-changing work possible. Your generosity could help someone affected by ovarian cancer access the vital support and resources they need. Any amount you feel able to give could have a huge impact on the experience of someone facing a diagnosis.

It would mean a lot to me if you could share my fundraising page with your friends, family, colleagues and on your social media.

I’m thrilled to share that I completed my 10k run in 1:05:30 (65 minutes and 30 seconds) and successfully reached my fundraising goal of £250 for Ovacome!


A huge thank you to everyone who supported and donated — your generosity and encouragement truly kept me going every step of the way. 💙


I’m proud to have contributed to such an important cause helping those affected by ovarian cancer.


Thank you all again for being part of this journey with me! 🙏


Still training

Saturday 20th Sep
No Park Run today… but yesterday morning. my PT encouraged me to run 3k with him… then changed it to 5k  after we had already started  - I think he is secretly trying to kill me.   Mind you the night before i went all out training my legs and glutes - which might not have the best idea 8 hours  before a run. 😂

PB at my 5k

Monday 8th Sep
Attended the Thames Path Park Run… and this time achieved a PB… Still hot and sweat but this time I was consistent in my run.

Thames Parth Park Run 23 /08/2025

Sunday 24th Aug
Attended my first 5k Park Run at Thames Path . An Interesting route…. The first half is a gradual up hill  and the second half is downhill.  I was hot and sweaty  by  this time I completed it…, but I will be back to give it another go.
