For those of you who don't already know me, My name is Cath. I am a SNA on EPOC. I’m hopefully coming to the end of a tough battle with cancer. It hasn't ben easy but im determined to keep moving forwards.

If there's anything this journey has taught me its that you have to keep putting one foot in front of the other, and that’s just what I plan on doing! I'm challenging myself to try new and difficult things this year

I’m running a chocolate 5K in honour of our beloved friend and colleague Rixie, who tragically lost her own life to cancer. Birmingham Hospice provided her invaluable care at the end of her life, so I'm fundraising to give back to the wonderful community so they can go on providing.
