Wetherspoon employees are taking part in hiking challenges across the UK to raise vital funds for Young Lives vs Cancer. Welcome to our campaign page for the Wetherspoon Ben Nevis HIKE 2023.

Wetherspoon is Young Lives vs Cancers longest running corporate partner, over the last 20 years employees from across the UK have raised over 21 million pounds to support children and young people with cancer. This year they will embark on hikes across the UK to raise vital funds for Young Lives vs Cancer.

When a child is diagnosed with cancer life becomes full of fear, for them and their family. Fear of treatment, but also of families being torn apart, overwhelming money worries, of having nowhere to turn, no one to talk to. Young Lives vs Cancer helps families find the strength to face whatever cancer throws at them. But every day 12 more children and young people hear the devastating news they have cancer. Well face it all together but we cant do it without you.

£26 could pay for an hour of a Young Lives vs Cancer Social Workers time. They will aim to speak with children and young people with cancer, and their families soon after diagnosis and help them to understand and cope with the emotional, practical and financial effects of cancer, through treatment and beyond.

£38 could pay for a family to stay overnight in one of Young Lives vs Cancers Homes from Home, providing free self-catering accommodation near to specialist childrens cancer treatment centres, which are often many miles from a familys own home. Head to our website to find out more about our homes from home you can even take a virtual tour of one of our properties online.

£100 could pay for a Young Lives vs Cancer grant. Cancer can have a huge effect on a familys finances and a Young Lives vs Cancer grant is offered to children and young people with cancer, and their families, as soon as they come into contact with us to help meet the sudden extra costs that a cancer diagnosis can bring.
