cancer fundraising

Meet Hunny, the Stop Bowel Cancer teddy bear, who is visiting the UK with Danielle. They are staying in the stunning location of Chester.
All the profits raised from my Fields of Dawn album are going to 3 cancer charities. I thought it would be a nice idea to write down a little about the charities.

This photo typifies the wonderful support that I have had for my fundraising for almost 10 years. Barbara sent me this photo of her granddaughter with a Laura Lou teddy bear that arrived this week.
One of the fun ways to promote my fundraising items is to take them on virtual promotional tours. There are an infinite amount of places you can go, and it’s always fun when people can suggest places for me to go to. So hit me with some suggestions…
