Most of you don’t know that my dad was diagnosed last year with Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma. Thankfully, the treatment he received at the Leukaemia & Lymphoma unit at University College London Hospital saved his life - a world turned upside down is once again right side up. On 20th Sept I’m doing a sponsored walk across six London bridges with my dad, to raise money for the unit so patients can benefit from the research, treatment and services offered by UCLH and have the best shot of survival. I can’t thank them enough for what they did for my dad, but the least I can do is walk over a bridge or two (or six). If you can, please sponsor us. It’s for a really worthy cause.

We’ve had a fantastic response so far with over £500 being pledged - many thanks to everyone for their generosity. Still plenty of time to go before September 20th!
