During the summer of 2016 my son, Frankie Cheek, was diagnosed with cancer at two years old. Luckily his treatment, both here and in the US, proved successful and he has recently just received another 'all clear' quarterly scan! However, others aren't as lucky. Alice’s Arc, helped us through the darkest times and continues to do so for many families going through the same traumatic experiences as we did.

Alice’s Arc also do much needed work around funding clinical research into the much needed, and underfunded, area of Childhood Cancer.

While the Trek will be a massive challenge for my walking buddies and myself it’s not a patch on what these brave kids, including Frankie, and their families go through, so please do give generously and help Alice's Arc help people like us in the future.
