"The charity works incredibly hard to try and make a difference to those unfortunate enough to be diagnosed with cancer, as well as their friends and family.
"They are extremely dedicated and do try to keep Sheffield at the forefront of research and care and I hope that by becoming a patron, I can help contribute to this legacy in the long term."
