Let's come Together and make a difference.
Hello, Thank you for visiting my website...
One of my biggest life lessons, was breast cancer! I have been overwhelmed with the kindness and generosity of people who have been willing to support our charity work.
How can you help me to help others?
Well, I'm currently working on an International fundraising project with Dr Ruth James.
Our current project is for the people of Matabeleland South, Zimbabwe. We are fundraising for two portable ultrasound devices where an image can be seen on a mobile phone or tablet. Please head over to my Media Page and click the link for full details.
I have also written a short story in the hope it will help others. My book, Conquering Cancer Together is also available on my website.
Let's come together and make a difference!

On the 24th December 2015, Denise Coates was told that she had breast cancer. Conquering Cancer Together is about the impact that breast cancer has had, not only on her but on those around her. It’s about hope, it’s about awareness of early detection and it’s about the support of other inspirational women who have shared their survival stories and tips. At the forefront of Denise’s mind was for our future generations and education.
Denise’s breast cancer journey led her to discover her inner determination and resilience, which in turn gave her an overwhelming sense of wanting to give back. Since then Denise has become a media volunteer for Cancer Research UK and has been a charity ambassador for the L&D Hospital and is currently a volunteer fundraiser for the L&D Breast Cancer Unit, sharing her story in order to help others on their journey.
Conquering Cancer Together is part cancer memoir but also a true story about gaining an appreciation of life and wanting to give something positive back.
