In loving memory of
Ruth John
To live in hearts we leave behind is not to die
Support my challenge to fight for a world without pancreatic cancer
This September, I'm walking 84km for the 84 people who die from pancreatic cancer every 3 days in the UK.
Pancreatic cancer is the deadliest common cancer in the UK.
Right now, 31 people are diagnosed with pancreatic cancer every day in the UK.
So this September, I'm challenging myself to get up, get moving and walk 84km remember Ruth, and stand with those affected by pancreatic cancer.
Please make a donation to support me, and together...
We will always remember them. We will always honour them. We will always fight for them.

We are all lucky to be alive. A lot has gone off over the years. If I remember correctly did you move back to Thornbury Bristol? My marriage ended 2009. Living with someone else since last year. Hope you are alright David. Message me anytime!

This year should have been the start of a new future with my wife Ruth. I will be retiring in November and we had so many plans, unfortunately she was diagnosed with Pancreatic cancer in March 26 and passed away in April 26. The future is different now, but I have walked over 160km and raised over £1000 from some lovely family and friends. Let’s hope that the future for others will be bright. Ruth was always helping others and this fundraiser will hopefully continue that legacy
