Mum, wife and supporter of Breast Cancer Now.

I developed breast cancer in 2014. Seven of my friends were all diagnosed and have also made recoveries however one lovely friend sadly lost her battle last month.

I had three operations, one being a mastectomy and after two years of very difficult times I am now on the way to recovery and am a year clear after treatment.

I am running the Great North Run with my lovely husband to to try and raise as much money as we can for Breast Cancer Now's live saving research.
