Story

Hey Guys

Right…..no beating about the bush…..we are after your cash – in the name of Cancer Research!

On the 14th August, a brave team from B&Q will be travelling to Belgium to take part in the ‘Death March’.  This event involves a 100km march which must be completed within 24hours. 

For those of you who remember last year, we were in a pretty bad way after the march.  Sleep deprivation was the least of our worries, as severe blisters, aches, pains and a general seizing of our lower bodies took up to 12 weeks to recover. 

So why are we putting ourselves through this again?  It’s incredibly painful, you can’t walk for weeks, the chaffing & blisters would make anyone’s eyes water, even the scenery sucks…but in the long run, what’s 24hours of our lives to make a difference to those battling cancer. 

Whatever you'd spend on a night out, a new pair of heels or trainers...put it towards this very worthwhile cause. 

Thank you so much for your support.
