Some 21 years ago, Rosemere Cancer Centre opened at Lancashire Teaching Hospitals and I started as a young enthusiastic staff nurse working on its Ribblesdale Ward from the day it opened.“This led to a long and privileged career as a cancer nurse. I am fortunate to remain part of this fantastic team of health professionals as my current role as divisional nursing director for the surgical division, includes Rosemere Cancer Centre, Ribblesdale Ward and other specialist surgical wards caring for cancer patients.”Charlotte, who has been running for about a year, said: “I see firsthand the difference donations to Rosemere Cancer Foundation make to patients’ lives.”Four of the runners have their own Just Giving page.
