Carissa’s Fight Against Gastric (Stomach) Cancer

A huge thank you to Carissa for supporting the OPA Cancer Charity through your fundraising event, and for helping raise vital awareness of gastric (stomach) cancer. Your efforts truly make a difference.

Carissa’s Story

“Recently, a close friend was diagnosed with stomach cancer, one of the rarest cancers in the UK. Her strength throughout this process is unbelievably incredible and deeply inspiring to everyone around her.

Training for up to 8 weeks and soon to be stepping into the ring for Fight Night, I hope to raise awareness of stomach and gastrointestinal cancers. I’m fundraising for OPA Cancer Charity to help continue their amazing work for gastric cancer patients and families.

I’d be grateful for any donation, of any size, and for your support in sharing this page.
