Several years ago my dad, Tony Range, was diagnosed with Sarcoma, cancer in the back of his thigh. The cancer can never be removed as it is wrapped around his nerves but every 18 months he has to endure an operation to have 80% removed. Following operations he now has drop foot and paralysis.

He is a builder and has been all his life and each time he has an operation he doesn't get any sick pay and unable to work for about 3 months. He never fully recovers and can only work with extensive support.

I would really like him to have no money worries. His next operation is January 18th 2017 and he will be out of work for several months. The household income he very much dependant on him and during this time it's a struggle.

My dad has always raised money for charities completing challenges around the UK. This support for covering his salary would be phoenominal.
