Fundraising for OPA

Hi all,

My amazing son and his lovely friends shaved their heads in aid of OPA a couple of weeks back. Photo and link to his fundraising page is below. They have raised over £2,000 so far, which is amazing as they started off with a £500 target! My husband had junctional oesophageal cancer a couple of years ago but unfortunately it has now come back in his lungs. He is in the middle of chemo now to try and control it and doing ok so far 🤞. Just thought I would share the link with you all. Thanks. Emily x
