Beating Bowel Cancer said:
Neil Spicer, a business partner within the IT industry, but also a great friend, is doing something amazing. He is training hard to take part in the Marlow Half Iron Man. (1.2 mile swim, 56 mile bike, 13.1 mile run), also running the Bournemouth marathon, and running the full London Marathon.
Neil works for AMD, and has worked with Overclockers UK for many many years, to help us/you with the fantastic deals and support. Also, I remember personally that he gave one of our forum members an AMD 6990 graphics card, some of you may remember this thread.
http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showpost.php?p=18489745&postcount=1653In 2012, he has continued to do this, but has been looking after Kate (his wife), and their children due to bowel cancer. Kate was diagnosed with bowel cancer in May 2012, and was given the all clear in April 2013. 11 months she went through absolute hell.
Neil is training hard and is going to no doubt struggle with these events, but he says that it can never be as hard as going through what Kate went through.
So this thread is basically to ask the community to help out, and raise awareness and money towards the charity 'Beating Bowel Cancer'.
If you can kindly give something towards the charity through his page, and feel free to donate anonymously, by using your forum name, and adding OcUK at the end of your name, or in the comment box, so Neil knows it is from us!
