Story

Firstly & most importantly every penny we raise will be going to Williams Fund, we are not asking you to pay for us to do this, we are covering the costs!

On 29th July 2018 Three of the staff at Countrywide Moves (affectionately known as Box Monkeys) have volunteered (honest!) to perform a Sky Dive to raise money for our much loved charity, Williams Fund! 

Emma, Phil & David will be strapped in taken up to 12,000 feet and then booted out of a perfectly functioning plane.

Here's why-

William’s Fund was set up in memory of William, who died of a rare Childhood cancer at he age of 4yrs. William’s Fund support vital research into Childhood cancers … which are completely different to adult cancers and need a totally different protocol.

Big Cancer research charities do not fund specific research for children’s cancers… William’s Fund have their own researchers in Oxford. Dr. Helen Townley (William Dodd Research Fellow) is running the research programme; they have little funding other than charity and no official fundraisers. They have achieved some incredible results, which will also help the understanding and treatment of general cancers, whilst focusing on rare childhood forms. Oxford have links with some incredible resources so they can collaborate and spend funds wisely.


William's Fund has no paid employees or expense accounts!

All your money goes directly to the research, William would have been 22 on March 13th 2018. So far £850,000 has been raised, please help us reach £1m as a legacy to William and to enable the researchers to reach higher levels of excellence to make a real difference to the children.

William's Fund is a fundraising organisation which raises money for Childhood Cancer Research in Oxford, part of the Oxford Hospitals Charity. Registered charity number 1175809 (Fund 0085).
