I played a part in this, I am very proud to see something happening as a direct result.

Given that many from all over Scotland receive treatment at the Beatson the new Maggies Centre will be in a great place to provide support.

I have taken part in the London Moonwalk 3 times, the first when there were only a few thousand walkers but to see it happening in Scotland and to see the results helping those in Scotland is fantastic.

I can't commit to doing a full moonwalk this year but I have just registered to do the Glasgow Half with the moonwalk team.
I did this a few years ago, I hadn't had time to train, was very unfit, it was the hottest day EVER and I finished 37th from the last [lol]
Honestly by the time me and my friend had got round all the pipers had gone home lol !
This year I am going to try my hardest to get fit and although I know I won't be in the first 200 to finish I am going to try not to be in the last 200 either.

Details here if anyone interested.

Starry well done, true grit means doing something you find particularly difficult.

Well done. My mother was diagnosed with cancer just a few days before she died, and several members of my family have died of cancer, so people like me can't thank people like you enough.
