Jessicas Sarcoma Awareness
(UK, 1157819) Browse events
YTD Raised: £14,285.96Jessica Robson was diagnosed with alveolar sarcoma cancer on the 1st of November 2010 aged 14 after finding a slight lump in her left thigh on a holiday in August the same year. After a hard 3 and half year battle with cancer she passed away peacefully in her sleep in the early morning of the 16th of May 2014 aged 18. Jess always loved raising money and with all the fund raising she has done in the past 3 years, as a family we have raised over £28,000 for a number of charities. Jess loved when people brought presents in for Christmas and Easter eggs in for the patients. We (Jessica's sister and parents) are keeping Jessica's inspiration alive by keeping her fundraising going but now in her name. We have set up the charity 'JESSICA'S SARCOMA AWARENESS', in the memory of Jess, the money we will raise will go 25% to teenage cancer trust (a charity closest to Jessica's heart) 25% to Sarcoma UK (as jess always wanted to help beat cancer) and the other 50% will stay in the charity which I will then work out money to be able to make up presents for the other children in hospital fighting this awful disease. For example, Easter, Christmas and so on and financing days out for the patients and their families. Jessica was never selfish, always smiling and never gave up. She never deserved this awful disease but I want Jessica's spirits to live on.

Abscesses, pain and distress, parents of these children in Morocco are no different to any other around the world, they want their children helping.Maybe a little pebble in a big pond but three years ago a group of dentists from around the UK came together to form the Dental Maverick charity to provide dental care in remote areas of the world Expanding significantly in 2012,the Mavericks numbered a team of 15, including 8 clinicians and their support staff of dental nurses and admin staff. Excited at the prospect of providing restorative fillings for the first time to complement the inevitable extraction work load the Mavericks met up in Southern Spain for the ferry journey to Morocco. Laden with a tremendous range of clinical equipment donated by incredible dental company generosity and public donation, dental care we take for granted headed for a North Africa desperate for the services of this western team.
