Northern Ireland lawyer raises £11,000 for cancer charity
Reading time: 1 minute
Northern Ireland solicitor Jenny Moore has donated £11,000 to cancer charity Marie Curie NI after a fundraising effort in memory of a late friend.
Ms Moore, a senior employment lawyer at Danske Bank, last year set out to raise money for the cancer charity following the loss of her friend Sarah Hooks.
Sarah, an accountant with KPMG, passed away in February 2025 at the age of 35 following a two-year battle with ovarian cancer.
Ms Moore initially aimed to raise at least £9,100 for the charity, which equals the average cost of providing 24 hours of care.
She ran more than 800 kilometres between May 2025 and Christmas Eve as part of the fundraising initiative, smashing her original target.
“Thank you to all those who donated, shared, and helped me along the way — I am hugely grateful for the support,” she said.
