Now after five months and 20 chemotherapy sessions, Ian will mark successfully completing treatment for the disease as guest of honour at Cancer Research UK’s Shine Night Walk in Edinburgh. He regularly works at mass concerts, fundraising events like Shine Night Walk and Race for Life as well as sporting fixtures across the country as a key part of the first aid team looking after the public. “But after the second cycle of chemotherapy, I was told the cancer was shrinking, so I knew the treatment was working. They’ve been brilliant.”Now Ian is urging people to help beat cancer one stride at a time by taking part in Shine Night Walk. “Our vision is a world where everybody lives longer, better lives free from the fear of cancer and money raised through events like Shine Night Walk is critical to making this a reality.
