George’s story

I see the charity of the year commitment and the sponsorship of a rat as sound investments on behalf of the people living in our region. My dad died from myeloma in 1979. I’ve been ill with it since 2010 and that fact I’m still here is evidence of the medical advances that have been made.

Castle Hill has done a lot for me. The consultants there have been brilliant and I felt I should give something back.

Everybody has been touched by cancer at some point and people have a much better chance when it is found early. I was lucky because I had kidney stones, and the doctors looking into that found the cancer at a point where it wasn’t really active at all.
