So please dig deep and donate now.

Our own experience of living with cancer started with my mum (pictured on the right of our photo).  She developed stomach cancer in May of 2007 which was treated with chemotherapy.  In February 2008 my wife was diagnosed with Breast Cancer.  With two young boys, living with cancer became very unsettled and emotional.  Chartities like Breast Cancer Care were there for us during this awful time.  They were there with advice, support and also supplied us with a story book which explained the condition so well to the children, where we couldn't find the words.  Now that my mum and my wife have made tremendous recoveries we would like to give something back to these charities.  We are raising funds by doing a sponsered trek of the great wall of China and my sister and I will accompany my mum on the trek and prove there is life after Cancer.  Please give and help us to raise money for this worthy cause.

Thanks to every one who has donated so far, and a special thanks to Martin Perritt and his family and BUCKLAND NEWTON HIRE who have been very generous.

Many thanks to all who attended the Neils Yard evening.  Special thanks to Katie for her expertise and donating so much of her time for the cause.  Also Michelle and Duncan Garside for their donations of raffle prizes xxxx
