Henrique's campaign for Ovarian Cancer Action

Tax deductible
This year I will be doing a No Booze Lent before Easter. This will mean 40 days of no drinking from Ash Wednesday (March 6) to Easter Sunday. In doing this I will be raising money to raise awareness of Small Cell Carcinoma of the Ovary. SCCO is a rare and very aggressive form of cancer affecting young women, mostly in their 20’s and 30’s and has a very poor prognosis. Having recently lost a friend to this terrible disease I have decided to raise money to help raise awareness of the symptoms of ovarian cancer and fund research.

If any of you would like to sponsor me in this venture, I would be most grateful. If so, please feel free to give a donation. Donations of any size are accepted. I am sure my body will thank me for these 40 days of booze abstinence and I am sure I will thank you all for helping me in this cause.

More information about Ovarian Cancer Action: We're Ovarian Cancer Action. A charity dedicated to beating the UK's most deadly gynaecological disease. Every two hours a woman loses her life to this awful disease. At the moment diagnosis and treatment of ovarian cancer lags behind high profile cancers such as breast and prostate cancer. We find and fund the innovators who will help us break this cancer. We're here to champion the cause and bring people together to overcome a disease that strikes at the heart of what it means to be a woman.
