Each year as a group of collaborating artists we feel it is important to give something back for the joy that being creative has allowed us. We have decided to support the John Van Geest Cancer Research Centre as this sadly something that will affect, directly or indirectly, 1 in 2 of us and the centre are doing important work in Nottingham, the city we host our exhibition in, to crack the cancer code.
