LSBU alumna raises funds for Pancreatic Cancer UK

LSBU alumna, Jane Seaman is fundraising for Pancreatic Cancer UK and would like your support.

Jane is raising funds for Pancreatic Cancer UK
 

Jane tragically lost both of her parents to pancreatic cancer. In their memory, Jane has been working tirelessly to raise funds for Pancreatic Cancer UK.  Fundraising has already begun, with an impressive £500 raised just from selling unwanted items. Her latest event is ‘Once Upon a Time’ an evening of dance and entertainment at the Hilton Hotel, Maidstone. The event is taking place on Friday 18 July at 19.30 and tickets cost £20, proceeds of which will go to Pancreatic Cancer UK.  

Each year around 8,500 people in the UK are diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. It has the lowest survival rate of all cancers – just 3% of those diagnosed survive for five years. It is also the only cancer that has seen no improvement in this figure over the last 40 years. In 2011, the year that Jane’s father passed away from the disease, pancreatic cancer attracted just 1% of research funding from the major funding bodies. Jane would therefore appreciate your generosity or help promoting the event and raising awareness by visiting and sharing her Just Giving page.
