We provide a Milly Bag to children newly diagnosed with cancer

Story

I am raising money for Milly's Smiles as they have helped out one of my good friends Michael Gates and his family, His 7 year old daughter Zara has been diagnosed with Ewing sarcoma ,  a rare type of bone cancer. Michael sent me a list of charities that have helped his family and the one I have chosen is Milly's Smiles who provide a bag to families that have had a new cancer diagnosis, the bag is filled with items that help with unexpected hospital stays.

I have set myself the goal of completing the Yorkshire 3 peaks in under 9 hours, this involves ascending all of the Yorkshire peaks with a distance of 25 miles and 5200ft of ascent , I will be joined by my friend Sam Rathbone and we will be doing this on the 4th of September  2021, initially I had planned a cycling challenge but due to an on going hip injury that’s affected when I cycle I’m unable to ride my bike as much as I need to 

Thanks for any donations in advance.
