We are raising money for the Laura Crane Trust by doing a 5k Colour inflatable obstacle run on Saturday 30th June.

The Laura Crane Youth Cancer Trust is the only UK charity funding medical research specifically into cancer affecting teenagers and young adults, where it can frequently strike in dangerous and complex forms.  The Trust also funds measures to improve the quality of life for young cancer patients, both during and in the aftermath of their illnesses.  Support is offered to all of the hospitals throughout the UK which treat teenage cancer (currently 39).

The Laura Crane Youth Cancer Trust supports measures to improve the quality of life for teenage cancer patients during their frequent and debilitating stays in hospitals.  Teenagers are an age group onto themselves and require occupational and social activities to help keep up their motivation, which is so desperately needed to fight their illness and cope with the harsh regimes of treatment and the
isolation from school, friends and family that it brings.

Thank you for taking the time to visit our page and donating to our cause.
