About the charity : Hammer Out Hammer Out
Hammer Out is a registered charity that supports people with brain tumours and their families. Established in 2002, we are based in Thornbury, near Bristol and now have a committed team working towards raising awareness of brain tumours and the devastating effects that they have on both patients and those who love them. As well as offering a personalised support package, agreed with patients and their families, we also raise money to fund vital research into this incurable form of cancer. We aim to support children and adults across the South West region who are affected by brain tumours. To date, we have raised over £400,000 and currently support 80 families across the region.

Personal message:

In June 2007 four middle aged fools, Mark Thompson, Jim Constable, John Watt & Geoff Longstreeth will be riding bikes from Geneva to the sea at Nice. A total distance of 450km (285 miles) over 5 high alpine passes including Galibier at 8681ft & Col de la Bonnette at 9193 ft the highest pass in Europe.  The plan is for us to take four days - or we will miss the plane home.

Thank you for visiting our fundraising page. Please dig deep and sponsor us online.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Hammer Out will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.

So please sponsor us now!

Many thanks for your support.
