I am thankful to be able to run again this year to support this great, great cause. I lost a family member to cancer a few years ago, and I have had dear ones really close to me being hit by this disease, most of them still fighting to defeat it. CSG06 provides such important support for anyone suffering in this area.

A group of warm, supportive people who love to bring connections, warmth, humour and encouragement to those living with cancer. A community bringing kind words and comfort, reaching out and making sure no-one is feeling isolated or alone.
Many family members and friends also need help. And sometimes patients just need to be with other patients to talk about their fears, or grumble, or just joke about things. Learning you can live with cancer is a stage you often need help with.

My wife died almost 3 years ago of breast cancer after more than 12 years of various treatments. During this time the CSG06 team provided much help with mindfulness and massages and friendship. By joining the CSG06 marathon relay team I hope to help them continue their work. So, since actions speak louder than words, it is time to dig out my old running shoes!

I am writing this testimonial as the designated next of kin for my dear friend, Suzie, who was diagnosed with incurable cancer. During her challenging journey through this difficult time, the Cancer Support Group 06 played an indispensable role in providing both financial and physical support to both Suzie and myself.
I am profoundly grateful to the CSG06 for their invaluable assistance and the unwavering care they provided mainly to Suzie but also the emotional support I received during a difficult time. They are a shining example of the incredible impact that compassionate organizations can have on individuals and families facing the challenges of cancer.
In the end, cancer is a formidable adversary, and Suzie ultimately lost her battle. But throughout this journey, the unwavering support and compassion of the Cancer Support Group 06 provided us with a lifeline that made an immeasurable difference to both of us.
