The pupils of Scarcroft Primary School have chosen to support Candlelighters in their work supporting families in their fight against children's cancer because Candlelighters have been there for families in our school and we want to help. Pupils, parents, and grandparents are teaming up to design, build and race a soapbox cart in the Micklegate Soapbox Challenge in York. We built a cart from mainly donated parts to a design drawn by some of our pupils to carry our volunteer drivers Alastair Hudson and Paul Rowan down the 4m high start ramp and steep cobbled Micklegate around chicanes and over the jump in the fastest time possible.

Lots of people have already helped including Your Bike Shed who have paid for our entry and are supplying bike parts and S8 Racing Sheffield who provided cart parts. Please help too by sponsoring us so we can raise the most we can for Candlelighters to help them with the fantastic work they do.
