Story
Mark Abram was diagnosed with a terminal brain cancer in April 2017 which devastated him and his family.
Mark's friends and work colleagues sprung into action to support him and his family through such a difficult time.
Successful fundraising events in 2017 included Wigan 10k, 6-a-side Football Tournament and an '80s themed fancy dress night. Both Mark and Mandy were incredibly moved by the amount of support they received from their friends and beyond.
As a Royal Mail employee, Mark received full pay whilst absent from work for a period of six months followed by a further six months at half pay. Now, over a year since his diagnosis, Mark is in receipt of statutory sick pay.
We have two events confirmed so far for 2018 - four of Mark's close friends are participating in Tough Mudder Yorkshire on Sunday 29th July and the 6-a-side Football Tournament will take place on Saturday 4th August at Hindley Green FC, Thomas Street, Hindley Green.
Any donations, large or small, would be gratefully received.
