Story

Thanks for visiting our justgiving page!

In June 2007 Jess lost her beautiful sister Emily to a wild form of cancer. Emily was just 22 years of age when she passed away. In such a short life Emily achieved more than most in a lifetime. Emily always had a smile and helped others when she could. Last year the Loughrey's with the help of their friends raised £56,000 for clic Sargent, to find out how please visit:

Last year the flagship event was the Lands End to John O Groats Bike Ride EMBO LEJOG. Which Jess and Matt (Dad) and other amazing people completed.

This year Jess's Dad and friends are riding from Chatham to Gibraltar. (Jess is not doing the bike ride, she no longer likes bikes!) for more info on the bike ride please visit:

To help support the bike ride and make more money for the fantastic CLIC Sargent we wanted to add another fundraising event!

Sascha Fowler came up with the brilliant idea of jumping out of a plane and Jess drunkenly thought it would be a good idea (She is now petrified) Ruth Smith is just amazing if a little bit crazy and helped convince Jess to do it. Our Friend Sam found out about our plan and thought it was great and just had to join in the fun!

Our tandem sky dives are all booked up! We will be free falling 12,000ft on Saturday 30th May 2009 the weekend before Emily's 24th birthday, what a brilliant birthday present! By this date we want to raise £1185 hopefully more so we can add to the Embo CLIC Sargent total.

PLEASE HELP US ACHIEVE IT
Thanks x x x x x

As the family and friends we will be forever in debt to Emily Rose for giving us 22 years of treasured moments, they were quality years. The debt also runs to the staff of Kennaway Ward at the Royal Marsden Sutton and the CLIC Sargent team for the support they gave and continue to give to us the Loughrey Family.

CLIC Sargent provides outstanding care and support for all children and young people up to the age of 25 with cancer. CLIC also provides support for their families and carers. Please donate to CLIC Sargent this is a wonderful worth while chartity. Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure.
