A LECTURER who lives in Evesham will be taking on a 400km six-day cycling challenge in Kenya later this year to raise money in memory of her sister who died from ovarian cancer. Sara Greedy s sister Nicola Williams had the disease twice in two and a half years before she passed away six years ago. Sara, who lives in Evesham with her husband Clive, is now hoping to raise money for the charities Breast Cancer Now, Jo s Cervical Cancer Trust, and Ovarian Cancer Action when she travels to Kenya in October with her friend to take on the challenge. As well as my sister Nikki, I’ve had a few friends and colleagues who have had cancer, and there are three charities that benefit from what we re going to do, said Sara.
