'Cancer won't stop me being a fan'
In December 2015 Jacqui Forster was given just months to live. Her breast cancer had spread to her lungs and the prognosis was terminal.
A passionate football fan Jacqui decided she was going to spend whatever time she had left campaigning to encourage women to attend football matches by reducing the intimidating atmosphere that often prevails.
This month she launched the latest part of "Women at the Game" and says the campaign has helped in her fight against cancer.
