Wife’s bravery inspires Sean to run London Marathon for Breast Cancer Campaign
Sean Baldwin (32), who works at the Preston radio station 97.4 Rock FM, will join thousands of other runners on the starting line for the 26.2 mile race in London on April 22nd after his wife, Joanne, who used to work at the Burnley Express, was diagnosed with a Grade 1 invasive breast cancer in June.
Joanne is currently in the middle of her chemotherapy and radiotherapy and once the treatments have finished the risk of cancer returning will be reduced to just 4%, which is less than the national statistic.
