A PRESTWICH breast cancer survivor has raised over £7,000 for charity after organising a sponsored dog walk through Heaton Park.
Francine Goldman, 57, was diagnosed with breast cancer last year, after her initial mammogram had been delayed due to the Covid-19 outbreak.
She has since had several operations and a mastectomy, and is now thankfully cancer-free, but is urging other women whose check ups may have been delayed to come forward and get checked before it’s too late.
"I was supposed to have a routine mammogram in March last year but got a letter saying they would have to put it back," said Francine, who owns a travel agency. "I didn't think anything of it but five months later when I back the results came back and they comfirmed they had seen something.
