MickOB running to beat Pancreatic Cancer

By Michael O'Brien

I am fundraising for Pancreatic Cancer UK.

Pancreatic cancer is tough – tough to diagnose, tough to treat and tough to research. 

I was lucky to have had treatment for the disease, others are not so fortunate. I’m taking on Challenge 24 to raise awareness of the disease and to raise money for this vital cause because 24 people are still dying every day from pancreatic cancer.

My aim is to run 5 kilometres each day 24 times during November. A total of 120 kilometres. Please support me by making others aware of the dangers of this disease and support my fundraising. Together we can make a difference and fund life-saving research.

My donations could fund...

52 hours with a nurse on our Support Line

or

23 hours of early diagnosis research
