Fighting cancer with P.A.C.E
Over the course of 22 years, the P.A.C.E members and all their generous supporters have raised a grand total of £106,124.42.
Parveen’s Annual Cancer Event (P.A.C.E) was launched in 2002, by Parveen Sheikh, who was undergoing cancer treatment at the time. It was her way of giving back, both here at home (through Scannappeal) and overseas in Pakistan (through the Imran Khan Cancer Appeal).
Parveen left her family and friends with a beautiful legacy when she passed away in 2009. Since then, P.A.C.E has been working to fight the good fight against cancer, particularly through their annual events: a five-mile sponsored walk and their summer BBQ.
Over the course of 22 years, the P.A.C.E members and all their generous supporters have raiseda grand total of £106,000+. Half of these funds have gone towards the treatment of poor cancer patients in Pakistan at the Shaukat Khanum Memorial Cancer Hospitals. The other half has gone to Scannappeal – a local charity of the Buckinghamshire Healthcare Trust, which raises funds for medical equipment used for the diagnosis and treatment of cancer patients.
IKCA is proud to work with P.A.C.E, and we couldn’t be more grateful to its members: Raza, Sabah, Zeenat and Shahzad Sheikh; Shemila, Safeena and Bilaal Mirza; Raheela Jawad and Rahat Butt. Thank you for fighting cancer with us!
