🥾 Lisa took on the incredible West Highland Way in memory of her mum - a strong, intelligent and caring woman whose family meant the world to her.

Lisa said:

“My mum loved any excuse for a big family gathering. As an only child, I had a special bond with my mum and dad. Our world fell apart when she was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer.

“An earlier diagnosis can give people more time with their families. It’s not just about raising funds; it’s about raising awareness too.”

By taking on a challenge for Pancreatic Cancer Action, you can help raise vital funds and awareness, giving more people the best chance of an early diagnosis.

From walks and runs to treks and unforgettable adventures, what challenge will you take on? 💜

💜 Early diagnosis saves lives.

Everything we do at Pancreatic Cancer Action is focused on helping more people recognise the signs and symptoms and receive an early diagnosis.

Because an early diagnosis can mean more opportunities for effective treatment. More hope. More precious time with the people you love.

For Sharon, that time has meant six more years of treasured moments - including welcoming a new grandchild, celebrating her children’s 30th birthdays and sharing her husband’s 60th.

Your support can help give more families the greatest gift of all: more time together.

💜 Have you noticed a change in your bowel habits?

Changes such as constipation, diarrhoea, or stools that are pale, greasy, smelly or float can sometimes be a symptom of pancreatic cancer.

Changes in the way you poo are common and can have many causes. But if something is different for you, keeps happening or doesn't feel right, don't ignore it – speak to your GP.

❌ MYTH: Only people with a family history are at risk of pancreatic cancer.

✅ FACT: Most people diagnosed with pancreatic cancer do not have a family history of the disease.

Having a close relative with pancreatic cancer may increase your risk, but anyone can be affected. That’s why knowing the symptoms matters.

Recognising unusual or persistent symptoms and seeking medical advice could help lead to an earlier diagnosis - giving more people the possibility of precious time with those they love.

Most people experiencing these symptoms will not have pancreatic cancer. However, if something doesn’t feel right, don’t ignore it. Contact your GP or NHS 111.

💜 This summer, help us Give the Gift of Time by learning and sharing the symptoms.

This Thank You Thursday, we want to say a huge thank you to Rory Murray, who completed the Edinburgh Half Marathon in an impressive 1 hour and 51 minutes - and smashed his fundraising target, raising an incredible £910!

Rory took on the challenge with his friend Harris in memory of his papa, William Begley, who sadly died just 14 weeks after being diagnosed with pancreatic cancer.

Rory wanted to honour his papa’s wish that others have a fairer chance to fight this devastating disease by raising vital funds and awareness.

Congratulations Rory and thank you for supporting Pancreatic Cancer Action! 👏💜
