Raising money for Cancer Connections

Charity Registration No. 1116728

The volunteers at Cancer Connections have experienced cancer themselves and help other people who have been diagnosed with cancer, are receiving treatment, had cancer in the past, are caring for someone with cancer, or been bereaved. The aim of Cancer Connections is to help people living with cancer, in South Tyneside, to return to normal life and enjoy again their family, work and leisure.

this time last year my friend Steven Bruce asked me if i wanted to do the boxing day dip for cancer connections and my reply was... "you must be joking i like my bits and pieces just where they are and not hiding inside my stomach!!".

little did we know but steven didnt have much time left with us and passed away on January the 8th and for this i have regretted not getting involved last year when i should have.

so to make up for being a big softie last year i have pledged to make a prize fool of myself and do this years dip in a pair of speedos. now, most of you will know im a big lad these days and it will truly be a sight to see! i promise to go right under in nothing but the trunks with lots of photos on facebook showing the whole world!

if thats not enough to sway you to sponsor me please read the link below and see for yourself the good and ever increasing work cancer connections do for people around south tyneside
