In memory of a good friend

I am (Angela A) walking in memory of my good friend Lynn McFaull who died of ovarian cancer 3 years ago. She is pictured here with her daughter Megan and is sadly missed by all of her family and friends. I am grateful for this opportunity to raise awareness and funds for this charity which was a great support to her and a place where she was able to speak to and befriend people in the same position as herself.

Mark McCarthy's Magic Moments is a charity offers special treats to patients undergoing cancer treatment. This may be a short trip away to provide a welcome lift after treatment or the opportunity to spend one last holiday with the family. They also take out large groups of patients twice a year, once in the summer on a boat trip up the Thames and again at Christmas to a panto followed by lunch.

This is a local charity for people in the Barking, Havering and Redbridge area and was brought about by nurses in Queen's Hospital (Oldchurch) and King George hospital in Ilford. They now have several volunteers.

If you'd like to pledge a donation please add a comment and I will email you with details.
Thank you so much for your support and thoughts.
