My Story

Hi my name is Mark Pearson and I am doing a classic mini run from Malin head to Mizen head organised by the Irish Mini Owners Club on Friday 18th September to Sunday 20th September 2026 in memory of my beautiful sister Anita Culbertson 55 years old from Coleraine who was a loving wife, mother, mother in-law, daughter, daughter in-law, sister, sister in-law, niece, auntie, cousin and friend.

It's with great sadness that my only sister Antia took her own life on the 8th January 2026 not being able to cope with the news she had breast cancer and her mental health deteriorated very quickly. 

Charis Cancer Care works in conjunction with clinical treatments for cancer to offer a holistic approach to clients. Our comfortable treatment rooms are purpose-designed for the delivery of complementary therapies by trained practitioners free of charge. 

Our focus is on the whole person, their physical, psychological and emotional needs and our staff will offer clients every form of support possible including counselling, nutritional information and mindfulness. 

Our role is to listen and help. We provide a warm and nurturing environment, with support from experienced professionals and therapists.
