Story
The Source of Life Project
The Source of Life is a Rotary project led by Drewe Lacey, raising funds to fight pollution in the River Wye and GIST Cancer. 50% of funds raised will support environmental charities in the Wye Valley, and 50% will support GIST Cancer UK.
After a serious operation in 2023 Drewe was diagnosed with a rare form of Sarcoma Cancer, Gist, which has inspired him to do the entire Wye Valley Walk, and to launch this as a Rotary led project to raise funds for the Wye Environment and Gist Cancer.

4 months agoWell three days in and really tough! 38.3 miles but 4,500 ft ascents. Tomorrow also tough. Battling with body but mostly psychology to believe can actually complete this. Learning daily so chemo drug now taking at night as cant live with it in daytime when walking. Your support has been amazing and that will I am sure keep me going. Lets hope by the end of the weekend we will have exceeded £6,000.
