Support my World Cancer Day Dip

Help me reach my goal of £150

Support my World Cancer Day Dip

I'm taking on a Cold Water Dip Challenge for Young Lives vs Cancer this World Cancer Day. Join me in supporting a good cause and your contribution will make a big impact to children and young people with cancer. Whether you donate £5 or £500, every little bit helps. Thank you for your support.

Children and young people with cancer are facing a hard winter. Instead of making precious memories with their family, treatment means that they’re facing weeks spent many miles from home.

But cancer doesn’t have to mean families are torn apart. That special moments are lost. You can keep families together this winter.

£23 could pay for an hour of support from a Young Lives vs Cancer social worker, so that children and young people with cancer, and their families, get the right care and support at the right time

£60 could pay for a night in a Young Lives vs Cancer Homes from Home, a free place for families to stay close to specialist hospitals when their child is going through treatment, keeping families together

Taking the Plunge: My Cold Water Dip to Fight Childhood Cancer

Sunday 2nd Feb
Cancer is a word no parent ever wants to hear. But in my world, it became a reality when my beautiful daughter was diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia. Since then, our lives have been filled with hospital visits, treatments, and moments of uncertainty, but also with hope, strength, and an incredible community that has supported us along the way.

That’s why I’m taking on the Cold Water Dip Challenge to raise money for Young Lives vs Cancer, a charity that helps children, young people, and families navigate the hardest journey of their lives.

Why This Challenge?

Jumping into freezing water might seem like a crazy idea, but it’s nothing compared to the battles these young warriors face every single day. Cancer doesn’t just affect the person diagnosed, it impacts entire families emotionally, physically, and financially.

Young Lives vs Cancer provides crucial support, from helping families cover travel costs for hospital visits to offering a safe place to stay near treatment centers. They make sure no family has to face cancer alone.

How You Can Help

I’ve set a fundraising goal of £150, and with your generosity, I know we can reach (or even exceed!) that target. Every donation, big or small, makes a real difference.

💙 £10 can fund a social worker’s call to support a family.
💙 £25 can help cover travel costs for a young person to receive treatment.
💙 £50 can contribute to a night’s stay in a Home from Home, keeping families together near the hospital.

If you can, please consider donating to this amazing cause. Your support means the world to me, my daughter, and so many other families going through this fight.

Thank You

From the bottom of my heart, thank you for reading, sharing, and supporting this cause. Together, we can make a difference in the lives of children and families facing cancer.

Now, time to take the plunge! ❄️💙

Thank you to my Sponsors
