A Co Down woman has opened up on her shock cancer diagnosis as a teenager as she prepares to embark on a fundraising challenge for a cause close to her heart.
Claire Flanigan, now 24 years old, was diagnosed with ovarian cancer at just 16 years old. Originally from Belfast, Claire is currently living in Hillsborough and works as a supervisor at Screwfix in Bangor.
Reflecting on her diagnosis eight years ago, Claire said it came as a huge shock to both herself and those around her.
