Story
On the 27th May, 20 members of staff from Banbury Litho will be taking on the Yorkshire Three Peaks to raise money for Freddie's Future.
Freddie unfortunately was diagnosed with a rare childhood cancer called Ewing Sarcoma in November 2019 at 6 years old. Ewing sarcoma is an aggressive cancer that creates tumours in the bone and soft tissue that can spread to anywhere in the body, very quickly.
Freddie has gone through months of treatment such as chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and countless blood transfusions, and all of the side effects and long term issues this brings.
Freddie's Future raises money for the development of more treatment, immunotherapy, and allow children like Freddie to have a chance at fighting this awful disease.

The Yorkshire Three Peaks Challenge is 24-miles (38.6km) round trip route, and includes 1585m (5200ft) of ascent.
The Yorkshire Three Peaks Challenge takes on the peaks of Pen-y-Ghent (694 metres), Whernside (736 metres) and Ingleborough (723 metres), usually in this order, and in under 12 hours. These hills form part of the Pennine range, and encircle the head of the valley of the River Ribble, in the Yorkshire Dales National Park.
The group from Banbury Litho will be attempting this challenge on 27th May 2023.
