St John's Community Choir were devastated to lose our wonderful, cheeky, founding member, Jon Jarrett, on 6th April this year to this cruel disease. His wife Denise, their children, family and many of Jon’s closest friends have decided to walk 25k in his memory to raise money for Pancreatic Cancer UK.​  Engineering ran through Jon's veins and anyone who knew him would know he just loved a bridge.  The Thames Bridge challenge therefore couldn’t be more appropriate especially as the walk takes place on what would have been Jon & Denise's 28th wedding anniversary.

​

It’s unacceptable that more than half of people diagnosed with pancreatic cancer die within 3 months. Survival rates have improved enormously for most cancers, yet for pancreatic cancer, this is not the case.​  Pancreatic Cancer UK is dedicated to taking on this injustice using every possible means. They're supporting people with pancreatic cancer now, campaigning, and funding vital research to transform the future. Help them to make the breakthroughs that people with pancreatic cancer so desperately need.
