Story
At 19 years old journalist Dean Eastmond launched LGBT+ culture magazine HISKIND, and at 20 he was diagnosed with a rare and aggressive form of cancer. Using his platform, he has continuously shared his journey through the honesty of his writing, campaigned for LGBT+ rights and fought against inequalities LGBT+ people face in the health-care system. Dean's passion for writing has sparked a lot of positive change for the LGBT+ community, such as fighting for fertility rights and campaigning for LGBT+ training for nurses and hospital staff. At 21, he received the horrific news that his cancer had spread, and he sadly lost his battle. Despite everything, his voice has continued to raise awareness, provide comfort for many others struggling with the disease and he has triumphed fighting for the rights of the LGBT+ community.
A small group of schoolfriend's of Frazer, Dean's youngest brother, aged 10 and 11 have been touched by Frazer's strength and bravery in coping with the loss of his brother. These boys wanted to find a way to show their support to Frazer and his family and have decided to have a sponsored bike ride from Portland to Dorchester. The 11.5 mile bike ride will happen on the 14th of October weather permitting with a second date in mind for just in case. The monies raised will be given to the family for them to either have a memorable day with Frazer and Drew or give to one of Dean's charities.

My son Noah, is a friend of Frazer Eastmond, the youngest brother of the late Dean Eastmond. Noah and his friends were saddened to see his friend upset and also how brave Fraser has been over the past 18 months during Dean's illness.
