I want to help someone out we know, who has been dealt a cruel blow in her young life.......(her story is below but here's info on my event):-

I have organised a fundraising Clubbercise session to be delivered by Amanda a Clubbercise Instructor on FRIDAY 10th MARCH 2017, at the ICE HOUSE NIGHTCLUB, Canongate, Oakengates, Telford from 7pm-8.30pm....ENTRY is £10 to take part to include a strip of raffle tickets - I will also have a collection bucket at the event.

I would be really grateful if all entrants could try to raise sponsorship too, (non compulsory) but the more we can raise the better! You can share this GoGetFunding page by pasting the browser link into your facebook & this page should appear, people can then sponsor you directly onto this page so we can see the amount building up!

Here is Lisa's story...

Lisa was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2012. After helping her mum through the same disease the year before,it was Lisa's time to fight back. But this wasn't just any fight, Lisa was 4 months pregnant with a much wanted little boy at the time of being diagnosed!! For those who have had kids, being pregnant can be tough enough as it is, let alone trying to ride the waves of chemo and all that comes with it at the same time!! But Lisa fought back and with the greatest amount of strength and courage I have known from anyone!! Life was starting to get back to normal. Lisa was given the all clear and the family moved home and relocated to Devon to start afresh down by the sea. The children were settling in and Sam, their precious little boy, was thriving.

Lisa was continuing to do well, and the whole family had adjusted again to 'normal' life.

But cruel fate decided to throw another blow their way....Lisa's beloved Dad was diagnosed with a terminal brain tumour and underwent life saving surgery to remove the mass from his brain. It was an extremely nerve racking time for all the family, no one knowing the outcome. Thankfully it was a great success, the mass was removed and he is now doing really well and fighting hard against the disease.

However another devastating blow has been dealt to this family.....

Lisa's cancer has returned. This time it's secondary cancer of the liver and the doctors are unable to treat it this time. For Lisa, her 4 children, her loving husband and for so many of her good friends, this is totally, unbelievably, ridiculously so unfair, and it breaks my heart that they have to go through this!!

Lisa doesn't want pity. She doesn't want any sympathy. She just wants everyone to continue to treat her exactly the same as they were before. She wants to live life to the best she can and make some amazing memories with the time she has left.

So here's the deal... I, like I'm sure a lot of you feel, want to do something for this family. It's tough to help out when you don't know what to do, or live too far away to be useful, so Lisa's Sister-in-Law Kelly has a plan....

Lisa's life long dream has been to visit USA. To go see all the amazing things that that country has to offer. So let's try to raise enough money to send Lisa off on a once in a lifetime magical trip of America. What do you think?? Any donation big or small will make a huge difference to Lisa & her family's life'

SO LETS MAKE THIS HAPPEN!!! Thank you for reading....ps I'v added a link to Lisa's main fundraising page so you can see how she's getting on overall with the fundraising but wanted to open a separate page for this event to then link to her page after the event so we can see how much we've managed to achieve through this event :)
