Raising money for The Candlelighters Trust and Alice's Arc

Story

After losing our amazing Olly last September to Rhabdomyosarcoma I want to give something back to the people and charities who helped us throughout his treatment and help raise as much money as possible for Oliver's Arc (part of Alice's Arc) so they can fund vital research into Rhabdomyosarcoma. Far too many young lives are lost to this horrible cancer so we need to do whatever we can to put an end to it.

I will be taking on the Yorkshire Three Peaks Challenge in April before taking on the Leeds 10k in July and finishing off with a huge Coast to Coast in a Day Cycle Ride in August.

Candlelighters were always there when we needed them on ward and are still there for us now, there an amazing charity and we cant thank them enough. Oliver's Arc has been set up alongside Alice's Arc (parent charity) to raise funds and awareness for Rhabdomyosarcoma in Olly's name. Hopefully one day the funding we can provide will save other children from this horrible cancer. You can donate to either charity by clicking on one or the other of my profiles for either activity. If one activity is closer to its target than the other you can donate to the other to bring it closer to what we want to raise.
