Yorkshire Cancer Centre - Cycle Cuba · 15 November 2009 ·

Leeds Cancer Centre, part of the Leeds Cares family, diagnoses and treats cancer for the people of Leeds and the Yorkshire region. It is one of the largest cancer centres in the UK and provide some of the most up-to-date treatment, care and support for people with cancer.

Story

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.

I would like to acknowledge the tremendous help John Cornforth has given me in skiing up the Matterhorn in Switzerland and allowing the donations he raised to be added to the total fundraising for the Yorkshire Cancer Centre. John has also provided much help and encouragement with my cycle training that has transformed me into someone who can now tackle 30 mile rides with relative ease.  I'm almost ready for the demanding challenge of cycling approximately 200 miles across Cuba.

My inspiration for taking on this challenge was the the amazing care I received from the Yorkshire Cancer Centre during my treatment for cancer. 

Any sponsorship you can give me would be fantastic! My total fundraising target is £5000, (74% of that amount will go direct to the charity), the rest will pay towards the cost of my challenge.

My remaining fundrasing event is:

20th June, 70's & 80's Disco (Adults), Harrogate Squash & Fitness Centre, 7.30pm-Midnight.

This event promises to be an absolutely wonderful party with cool music, great food and super company. Lots of donated prizes are up for grabs via an auction and raffle. 70's and 80's props will be provided by Events prop hire, fancy dress is optional but the best dressed wins a meal for two at the Old Bell tavern in Harrogate.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me. Leeds Teaching Hospital Special Trustees gets your donations faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.

So please sponsor me!
