Raby Estates supports an annual charity event to raise money for the Institute of Cancer Research by participating in a “Human Mountain Endeavour” on the Lakeland fells. Last year a team of 12 walkers from Raby successfully completed a trek in the fells around Helvellyn and raised around £7000.

Once again this year we are back in the beautiful Lake District as we raise vital funds for cancer research in our support of ICR.

Each team will be allocated a mountain route for the day and this year Raby has been allocated the Buttermere fells to the west of Keswick.

We will continue to help towards ICRs vital discovery programme into causes of an effective treatment of cancer. Cancer affects one in every two of us at some point in our lives and continues to be the most dreadful disease . The ICR and others continue to make progress in the science to combat cancer and with your support, we can all make a difference.
