Mighty oaks – from little acorns grow”

This quote reminds us of Stuart, It inspires us never to give up, and to always remember that great things do indeed come from small
beginnings.

Stuart Brown who sadly passed away earlier this year from cancer is the main reason a large number of colleagues are wanting to follow
his lead and do something for a couple of charities that Stuart was close to & passionate about - MacMillian Cancer and Cancer Card where he was Cancer Card’s first Charity Ambassador as he believed the work of both made a real difference to people, families and their communities when they needed help the most.

Stuart was a passionate, selfless and inspirational leader and a friend to many during his working career. He believed in helping people,
businesses and local communities one step at a time and in honour of him we are looking to walk to Ukraine and back (virtually) which is a total of 3,000miles.

During the week the 6th to the 10th of June colleagues and friends across the UK will be supporting this cause and aim to raise up to £50,000 for the three charities over this week.

Given Stuart’s belief that we can all make a difference and help people when they need us most we will also be supporting the Ukraine Humanitarian appeal and we are all more than welcome to come and support us in our challenge to get out on the front foot as our aim is to remember our much loved colleague through supporting these worthy charities in doing something as a team.

Cancer Card are building an online support hub providing support and information for cancer patients, professionals, families, friends and employers as they navigate the world of cancer. This will include contacts for cancer charities and support services across the UK, invaluable information including signposting to financial help, disability support, access to complimentary services and treats and personal guides and tips from our Cancer Card community.
