Breast Cancer Awareness
Single Mother Of Twins & Breast Cancer Survivor, Nicky Joseph
Nine months after IVF treatment and giving birth to miracle twins, Nicky was diagnosed with breast cancer.
She was rushed in for an immediate masecthomy, followed be chemotherapy and radiotherapy. During this time she also became a single mother with limited support, limited income and limited energy.
That wasn't it for Nicky as her back broke the day after she finished her cancer treatment and she had yet another operation.
Earlier this year, 9 years after that first diagnosis, Nicky received more terrible news when she was told the cancer had returned and needed yet more surgery to have her womb and fallopian tubes removed completely.
It's been a tough year for Nicky but she still has the biggest smile, is the most amazing mum and is always thinking of others.
'My own tit tried to kill me & didn't win!'
Despite everything Nicky has been through, she is the most giving, generous woman. Her time is split between mum duties, event planning and fundraising for the school as well as volunteering at both HomeStart and Tracey's Treasures charity on Camden Road.
Her dream now is to support other parents with trauma utilising a unique Art Therapy approach which she is launching in November in the Camden area. Nicky needs help to get set up so 1 Luv One Blood are supporting her through the startup process and turning the dream into a reality.
On 17th October - World Trauma Day and the International Day for the Eradication of Poverty, Nicky is jumping out of a plane to raise awareness for collective trauma and the relief response that is so desperately needed.
When the skydive was suggested, Nicky immediately said YES, stating that her own tit tried to kill her and didn't win so she isn't afraid of anything now.

Nine months after IVF treatment and giving birth to miracle twins and on her way back to work from Maternity leave, Nicky was diagnosed with breast cancer.
She was rushed in for an immediate masecthomy, followed be chemotherapy and radiotherapy. During this time she also became a single mother with limited support, limited income and limited energy.
That wasn't it for Nicky as her back broke the day after she finished her cancer treatment, when the twins had just started walking and she had yet another operation.
Earlier this year, 9 years after that first diagnosis, Nicky received more devastatoing news when she was told the cancer had returned and needed yet more surgery to have her womb and fallopian tubes removed completely.
It's been a tough year for Nicky but she still has the biggest smile, is the most amazing mum and is always thinking of others.

One million people.
One shared purpose.
As a social experiment and conceptual art project, we are calling on one million volunteers & fundraisers.
Inspired by Royal Voluntary Service Platinum Champion, Hagir Ahmed (Helpful Hagir) completing over 7500 tasks as well as being Age UK long service award winner and volunteer of the year.
We understand the vital importance of volunteers and the role they play in the support of community and society.
The one million is inspired by the scale of Notting Hill Carnival which has one million attendees, each day, every year.
Muse on a Mission, Marianne Alapini, an award-winning Carnival ambassador for many years, has played an important role in celebrating and championing that spirit of community.
The 60th anniversary of Notting Hill Carnival marked a significant milestone in its history.
The occasion also saw the unveiling of the Guinness World Records’ largest blue plaque, dedicated to the inspirations and founders of Notting Hill Carnival.
We want to carry that spirit of collective action into a new generation by inviting influencers, streamers, creatives, entrepreneurs and members
of the public to come forward in helping us achieve one million Guinness World Records, to raise funds and awareness for our campaign.
Whether you can give your time, skills, network, resources or simply a brilliant idea, there is a place for you in this mission.
One million volunteers. One million possibilities.
The Richard Okorogheye Foundation
Five years on, we remember Richard.
Five years ago, Evidence Joel lost her son,
Richard Okorogheye, who was her only child.
As we acknowledge the fifth anniversary of his passing, we are standing alongside Evidence and every family who has experienced the devastating loss or disappearance of a loved one.
The Richard Okorogheye Foundation represents our commitment to
ensuring that families affected by the disappearance or loss of a child or
loved one have access to continued support, connection and trauma-relief initiatives.
His memory is not simply something to remember. It is a reason to act.
Wear Red for Richard
In honour of Richard, our campaign aims to inspire people to give blood and help us work towards a collective goal of one million new blood donors for the NHS.
A single donation can make a life-changing difference to someone facing surgery, a mother giving birth, llness such as sickle cell disease and thalassemia, an accidental injury or a medical emergency.
Behind every donation is a person choosing to give someone else the chance to live.
Help us reach our goal.

Marianne Alapini (TLC Marianne), also Trustee of the Richard Okorogheye Foundation, is a key campaigner in this blood-donation drive and bleed kits petition.
Having donated blood 34 times herself, which can save around 100 adults or 200 children, Marianne understands that giving blood is more than an act of kindness.
It is a commitment to protecting life.
Her work extends beyond blood donation. Marianne has also campaigned against youth violence and for stronger protections against dangerous weapons, including zombie knives and machetes. Being first to get cross-party agreement of trauma relief prevention and aftercare for families affected by the loss of a loved.
Marianne also supported the wider conversation around Idris Elba’s 'Don’t Stop Your Future' campaign, which called for urgent action to tackle knife crime and protect young lives.
Now, two years on, Marianne is holding the 'Anti-Knife Crime' motion at Kensington Town Hall, asking the cross party councillors to support further steps and initiatives.
Action speaks louder than words
Action speaks louder than words
Marianne is someone that leads with action, in political settings, her extensive volunteering, foodbank management, raising awareness and fundraising...so on 17th October, World Trauma Day and the International Day for the Eradication of Poverty, she is taking to the skies for her first ever Skydive with Nicky Joseph to kickstart the 1 Luv One Blood Campaign and shine a light on collective trauma and the relief response that is so desperately needed.
From protecting & empowering young people on our streets to helping save lives, Marianne’s message is clear:
Every life matters.
Every action counts.
Join us in solidarity. Wear red for Richard.
Give blood. Help keep someone else’s future alive.

A life of service and selflessness.
Real world solutions are a marathon not a sprint.
In recognition of Oxford University Kebil College World Leaders Summit Humanitarian of the year, Helpful Hagir completing the London Marathon on behalf of the Royal Voluntary Service.
We have set the length of the 1 Luv One Blood Campaign for a time period of 26 months.
Using the theme of 26 (as in 26 miles in a marathon), our goal is to provide 26 million litres of water to families in the UK and additionally provide clean, healing water to 2.6 million people across Africa and globally.
For every £2.6m raised we can build, equip,
staff and facilitate one Trauma Relief & Wellness Centre.
Helpful Hagir's message is clear:
Kindness costs nothing except time.
Register to volunteer because it could change the course of someone's future and even save a life.
The UK Government and NHS classify lonliness as a major public health crisis and a leading driver of premature mortality.
Volunteering could be as simple as giving your time to a foodbank, shelter, charity shop, charity organisation, youth club, community centre or checking on a neighbour, elderly/vulnerable person, friend or loved one, especially with instances of mental health, domestic violence and suicide on a steep increase.
Being There To Show You Care

Taking To The Skies For World Trauma Day and The Campaign Launch.
Two of our muses have got their wings!
17th October was a big day for Marianne Alapini and Nicky Joseph.
When 1 Luv One Blood Campaign Director Kirsty Raven put this last minute crazy idea on the table, they bravely agreed to jump out of a plane to stand up for humanity.
Taking their passion for trauma relief to new heights by kickstarting the 1 Luv One Blood Campaign was a huge commitment to 1 Luv One Blood, the work they do for others and the causes they champion.
We are all so proud of them both!
As Marianne so eloquently put it - 'This is the maiden voyage for a much bigger mission'.
With the ambition of 26 jumps in 26 months, and an invitation to 300 influential, inspirational and impactful women to join us, this was the just the start of the fundraising and our goal to break as many world records as possible.
It was such an exciting day as Kirsty, personally sponsored the jump for Nicky and made it possible for her to share the day with her twin boys who are now 10 years old. It was a proud moment for them and our hearts melted when they said 'You are the coolest mum ever'.
We most definitely agree!
The anniversary jump bonanza is already being planned for World Trauma Day 2027 and the mobilisation mission has began, so watch this space for who jumps with us next.
