Currently one million people are living with cancer in the UK.

Macmillan Cancer Relief is working towards the day when everyone will have equal and ready access to the best information, treatment and care for cancer.

Having both family and friends that have already benefited from Macmillan's services makes this charity very special to me.

The charity funds specialist Macmillan nurses and doctors, buildings for cancer treatment and care, a whole range of social care including grants for patients in financial difficulties and information for people affected by cancer and health professionals.

These services help alleviate fear and make the lives of people with cancer and their families easier.

Both Kelly and I have already ready raised £2,500 and we have our last fund raiser next month with Ricky Hatton at Burnley FC.

We wanted to raise £3,000 but as the dinner is already a sell out we are hoping to raise in the region of £5-6,000.

We have put together a website which is www.ukcelebrityevents.co.uk as we would like to continue raising money for charities. Other events are on the website.
