I know everyone says that their dad is the best man ever but I KNOW that mine is!

I know everyone says that their dad is the best man ever but I KNOW that mine is!

Claire Flack is one of our Virgin London Marathon runners and she is taking on this mammoth challenge for her ‘Popsicle’ who has incurable prostate cancer.

In October 2009 her father was admitted to hospital suffering from the most unbearable back pain, after a series of tests he was given the devastating diagnosis.

Claire remembers her mother breaking the news to her and feeling like her world had ended.  Now she is staying strong for her family and focusing all her energies in raising money for the research we are undertaking her at the Prostate Cancer Research Centre.

With the support of her employers, Healthcare Locums PLC, where Claire is a Payroll Supervisor, she plans on organising a dress down day EVERY Friday and putting the donated funds towards her £2000 target.  The directors have also agreed to match whatever is raised through the dress down day.

Claire has already distributed collection boxes and will be contacting local shops asking for donations to a raffle she will hold as well as pieces she can sell at car boot sales.
