Story

On the 13th May 2017 we will travel from London to Beijing to embark on the mammoth 9 day challenge of walking 27 miles of the Great Wall of China.

We will cover some of the 27 watchtowers over old brick-made steps, trek through remote villages and farms, and pass 20 battlements to the ‘Heavenly Ladder’ – a near vertical staircase that climbs to the top of the mountain .

We are taking on this challenge to fund pioneering research right here in Wales. It’s world-class and it’s local. 

Every donation we receive goes directly to our teams of leading scientists based here in Wales. It funds their work, helping them in the pursuit of a cure; making great discoveries in the areas of early diagnosis, better treatments and preventatives of cancer for the benefit of cancer patients globally. 

Please support us to help build ground breaking research for the future.
