A Little Request....

Hi, it's Tony here at Hometyre.

I am asking for your help today to raise awareness of Pancreatic Cancer. Sadly my lovely wife Christine passed away 2 years ago today from this silent killer and around 9000 people are diagnosed with this aggressive cancer each year.

As with so many causes the research funding to find screening programs are lacking and very much left to charity organisations like the Pancreatic Cancer Research Fund (PCRF). The PCRF do outstanding work to raise awareness and funds, on the 9th of October 2016 they have organised a half marathon event in central London.

My sons partner Charlotte Davies is participating to raise money for the charity in memory of Christine, this is a particularly difficult challenge for her as she has no previous running experience. If you feel that this is something you could donate to, I know Charlie, Daniel and I would be most grateful. To donate just follow this link to her JustGiving page https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/Charlotte-Davies2702

If you would like some more information on the organisation she's raising money for and the event itself, just click on the following links
