The Record

The Record is dedicated to the memory of my mother, Jennifer Darvell, who died of bowel cancer on 29 August 2016.

Over the course of two and a half years since Mum's death, I have met and photographed a variety of famous people. Among those included are Christine Ohuruogu MBE, Carl Hester MBE, Nick Robinson, Sian Lloyd, David Baddiel, Basil Brush, Gregg Wallace, Billy Ocean, Kim Wilde, Frank Turner, Steve Norman, Hazel O'Connor, Amy Macdonald, and many more.

I have met people with bowel cancer, and others with different types of cancer, including Deborah "Bowel Babe" James, Greg Gilbert, Victoria Derbyshire, Bill Turnbull, Kelly Smith, Steve Clark, Laura Boyd, Jules Peters, and Jacquie Beltrao.

Each person taking part has told me about the first record that they bought, and all have been willing to help raise awareness about Britain's second-biggest cancer killer.

All funds raised are donated to Bowel Cancer UK.
