Upcoming fundraising events for the Portsmouth Bowel Cancer Appeal
Elise's Challenge for PBCA
Elise Sargent was diagnosed with stage 4 bowel cancer in January 2025. Despite undergoing extensive chemotherapy and a 16-hour surgery, she is taking on three incredible athletic challenges — all to raise funds for the Portsmouth Bowel Cancer Appeal.
Her challenges:
- Cycling the Tour de 4 in Glasgow
- Swimming the Swim Serpentine in Hyde Park
- Running the 10-mile Great South Run in Portsmouth
Elise has so far raised £1,720 from 48 donations. Every donation makes a real difference to bowel cancer patients at QA Hospital.
