Myself, Paul and Josh are walking from Sandbanks to Hengistbury Head (approx 10 miles) to raise money for Clic Sargent. Clic Sargent have supported friends through the most difficult of times.

I first met Charlotte when she came to work with my team, she is the most eternally optimistic person you could wish to meet

 

Charlotte left us and married Luke and started a family of her own. She had a little boy called Louis followed quickly by Ryan, they certainly take after their Mum in that their beaming smiles can brighten the day

Ryan is also the bravest of boys. Shortly after moving to Spain to start a new life, at the tender age of 5 months Ryan was diagnosed with acute myeloid leukaemia and admitted to Great Ormond Street Hospital. AML can affect anyone, but is very rare in childhood, only 50 children a year are diagnosed with this awful disease.

At 12 months old Ryan has undergone chemotherapy, a bone marrow transplant and experimental treatment, sadly despite all this last week the leukaemia returned and the options have run out, today Ryan will be admitted to Naomis House where he will spend the short time remaining.

We will be doing a sponsored walk on Saturday 21st September from Sandbanks to Hengistbury head. We will be raising money for charities that support childhood cancer and Clic Sergant who have worked to support Ryans family during this time. 12 miles may not sound far, but for some of us that do not possess flat shoes it may prove to be a challenge

We would like as many of you as possible to support us either by joining our walk or donating whatever you can afford – we will provide details of a just giving page very soon, there will also be sponsorship forms at the staff conference – please give what you can. We website is in the process of being set up and you can see more details about Ryans fight on our Facebook page.

Sadly by the time of our walk Ryan will have earnt his wings – we will be doing this in memory of a wonderful little boy
