Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit the Sweet Flaming All Stars JustGiving page. Please continue reading to find out about the opportunity to donate to the Teenage Cancer Trust (A charity devoted to improving the lives of teenagers and young adults with cancer) and be entered into a prize draw with great prizes below.

At a forthcoming HRG company event, a number of us have been tasked with raising as much money as possible for charity. We have been overwhelmed by the generosity of the following companies (bmi, Etihad, Eurostar, Virgin Trains, Guoman Hotels, Starwood Hotels, purple parking and East Coast Trains) who have contributed to this charity draw.

The team of Sweet Flaming All Stars (Janine Cheeseman, Andy Taylor, Kay West, Matt Roberts, Andrew Findlay, Will Hasler, Sara Martin, Nathalie Caswell and Terry Lambert ) have been able to secure a number of prizes that will be drawn by team on Friday 9th July 2010.

A friend of one of the team has a son called Jordan (age 15) from Yate, near who is suffering from a rare form of cancer, Ewings Sarcoma.  The cancer manifested into a tumour at the base of his spine resulting in many months of chemotherapy, radiotherapy and finally an operation early in 2010.  is also battling with secondary cancer in his lungs.  A member of the Bristol Rovers Academy, Jordan is a keen and talented footballer with a bright football career ahead of him.  ’s parents, Vanessa and Tim, have been raising funds for the Teenage Cancer Trust for the past year or so recognising the requirement for treatment in an environment tailor-made to teenagers and their needs. We have chosen to help the cause by further raising awareness.

We will enter you once for every £2.50 that you contribute to this extremely worthwhile charity and there are a number of fantastic prizes generously donated to help raise extra money. The lucky winners will be drawn on Friday 9th July 2010 and will be independently verified by two individuals who has not entered the draw. All the team members and their households are disqualified from winning any prize. Their relatives and friends are however eligible.

There are over 25 prizes and below is an example of some of the key prizes available
