50p per sale going to Macmillan Cancer Support
Remarkable 26 year old Leanne Grose is donating 50p per sale of her brand new autobiography 'Just A Step' and her fitness DVD 'Leanne's Chair Workout' to Macmillan Cancer Support.
Leanne, of Truro, Cornwall, has turned a potentially devastating situation – a rare form of tumour and the loss of her left leg at the age of 20 – into a life full of triumph in the face of adversity. Written with refreshing honesty, 'Just A Step' is Leanne's story highlighting her gritty determination, an incredible spirit and a genuine zest for life.
Her autobiography serves as an inspiration to everybody. Despite her amputation and the resulting difficulties, Leanne has appeared on the television programme, Jade's PA, set up her own website and self-funded the making of the unique DVD, 'Leanne's Chair Workout'.
The autobiography is available from all good bookshops including WH Smiths, Waterstones and Amazon or direct from www.justastep.co.uk. The DVD is available from all good retailers including HMV, Amazon, Asda and Tesco online and www.justastep.co.uk.
50p from every sale will be donated to Macmillan to help improve the lives of people affected by cancer, providing practical, medical, emotional and financial support.
