I am abseiling from the top of Liverpool Cathedral to help raise funds for the Owen McVeigh Foundation who are a charity set up to support children who have been diagnosed with Cancer.

One of my best friend’s little boy Oliver is currently battling cancer and this is one of the charity’s that have been able to provide him and his family with support.

Stacey explains what Oliver has been through and their journey: “On 17th March 2024 I took my Son, Oliver, who was only 6 at the time into hospital after he had become poorly. 4 days later after lots of tests and investigations we were given the life changing and devastating news that Oliver had T-Cell Acute Lymphobastic Leukemia. This changed everything for my family from that day forwards and we are currently on a 25 month treatment journey with Oliver.

During his treatment Oliver has had to encounter countless numbers of scary things, more needles than anybody should ever have to have let alone a child, terrible chemo drugs that have caused awful side effects including losing all his hair and lots and lots of theatre trips to have lumber punctures. I will forever be in awe of the journey Oliver has had to endure and he always remains full of energy and positivity. He is a true inspiration”

Doing this is very much out of my comfort zone and I will be absolutely terrified, but this is nothing compared to what the children battling cancer have to go through daily. Oliver is an inspiration and shows so much strength every day!

I am doing this for all the children going through the terrifying journey of a cancer diagnosis and to support the Owen McVeigh Foundation so they can continue to make this terrible journey a little bit more manageable for the families and children involved.

The charity have worked tirelessly to support the families of children going through this terrible journey and provide them with amazing days out and activities to look forward to. Please help me in supporting a great cause.

They are also looking for more thrill- seeking fundraisers to take on a sponsored abseil on behalf of The Owen Mcveigh Foundation whilst raising invaluable funds for their charity !

Without the support of charitable donations from their fantastic supporters, they could not do what they do for children suffering from cancer in the Merseyside area.

Your help and fundraising is vital in helping us continue our work. thank you.
