Story
Why we are fundraising
2023 was a devastating year for our family. We lost two amazing family members to cancer within 16 days of each other. Tim Chant passed away on 26th June 2023 after a short battle with cancer that had been diagnosed only 6 months earlier 3 days before Christmas 2022 and Mike Steer passed away after a 7 year battle with cancer on 12th July 2023. We want to raise funds that will help other people who find themselves in a similar situation to us, and as a way of thanking those who helped us and are doing this in the memory of Tim and Mike.
The Charity
Tim, Mike and our families were supported by Rowcroft Hospice and the Rowcroft Community Team for the last few weeks of their lives and the work Rowcroft and the community team provide is exceptional and priceless. Rowcroft is a charity and is funded by donation and fundraising. The services they provide helps support people diagnosed with cancer and their families at the most difficult time in their lives.
Myself and my children will be doing everything we can to help raise money towards our family's target of £50,000.
