I am fundraising for Pancreatic Cancer UK.
We are raising money for Pancreatic Cancer UK for one main reason, we have seen first hand how brutal this disease is. First hand because our mum, Valli, was diagnosed in May 2019 and fought the disease tirelessly until she cruelly lost her battle. One in four people die within one month of being diagnosed, this is because Pancreatic cancer is incredibly difficult to diagnose and treat.
My donations could fund...
461 hours with a nurse on our Support Line
or
207 hours of early diagnosis research

I 'm so sorry to hear about Valli. I hadn't been in touch with her for a few years and had just been thinking of sending a message as I cycled past the construction site in Stratford. She was a real supporter and champion of my work - open to ideas as I worked with the demolition companies on the site, commissioning a pop up book, supporting an exhibition and later getting into buildings with me to seek out bits of furniture for a pop up book production line. She was so energetic and bright and generous and someone who was such a positive force! Sending lots of love to you and so sorry she isn't here anymore.
