Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.

We are taking on a festive challenge to race 2,700 miles to the North Pole by Christmas Eve in support of CLIC Sargent.

Why the North Pole? Well, it just so happens that it costs CLIC Sargent £2,700 to fund their 10 Homes from Home for a day (the same as the number of miles to the North Pole!). 

Each Home from Home is just a slipper walk away from their nearest specialist children's cancer centre and means families have a free place to stay altogether when their child is going through treatment.

We'll all be tracking our miles (we may even do some of them in our slippers), posting our pics and we may even burn off some of the mince pies!

Thank you so much for donating if you can :)

Love from

Jo, Bethan, Faye, Hannah, Catherine, Josie, Helen, George, Mike, Jonathan, Hannah, Paul, Louise, Caris, Rhiannon, Glyn, Alex, Sue
