On October 3rd, our Accounts Administrator Faye Hallows, alongside her 11-year-old daughter Darcie, took to the streets after dark for the Cancer Research UK 10K Shine Night Walk. Walking through the city illuminated by thousands of participants, the pair completed the 10km route in loving memory of Faye’s mum, Lynne, who sadly passed away from cancer last summer.

Faye and Darcie’s fantastic efforts have already raised nearly £700 to help pioneer scientists, doctors, and nurses discover new ways to prevent, diagnose, and treat all types of cancer. Every pound they raised directly supports life-saving research aimed at bringing us closer to a cure.

Reflecting on the emotional journey, Faye said:

“Raising money for cancer research means so much and every step was for my mum for all the memories we made and hopefully the continued research will mean fewer families will have to experience the heartbreak of losing someone they love”

What an amazing effort and achievement by Faye and Darcie. If you haven’t yet had the chance to donate but would like to show your support, there is still time to contribute to their fundraising total via the link below:
