Story

This year in memory of my wonderful dad I’ll be running the GNR for the first time to help raise money for Daft as a Brush. 

This  local company who are made of volunteers help transport cancer patients to and from their appointments. 

They were an absolute amazing help to my dad during treatment. They took away some of the financial stress of having to pay for transport to and from his treatments. 

George was not a social person so seeing the same familiar faces made the journeys a lot easier and he had never but good things to say about them  

This year through the GNR Daft as Brush are trying to raise £40,000 to help purchase a new Ambulance  so anything I can help to contribute  to that would be massively appreciated.
