'Real need' for annual Pause for Hope service supporting cancer sufferers and their friends and family

A man who has dedicated years of his life to raising vital awareness and support says there is still a "long way to go" to eliminate cancer.

Back in 1999 when the first Pause for Hope service was held at St Francis Xavier's Church, in Liverpool, no one anticipated it would grow into the success it is today. Professor Ray Donnelly today told how the service supports cancer sufferers across the region as well as their loved ones.

The ECHO previously reported how the service is set to return to the Metropolitan Cathedral at 3pm on October 2 and how we want you to send in your messages of hope or poems. We are once again backing the service which provides vital support for those living with cancer, their family and friends and the scientists looking for a cure.
