Al Dawson was diagnosed with osteosarcoma in 2005 aged 14. In 2006, after 1 year of gruelling chemotherapy, we celebrated Als post chemo bash. Just 5 months later though, we received the news that Als cancer had returned. It had spread to his lungs. He endured more surgery and radiotherapy but the cancer continued to spread, to his ribs, jaw, spine and feet. Al didnt lose a battle with cancer - it was never a fight he could win. He was courageous, mature and brave. He fought the disease with every ounce of strength he had. On 7th November 2007, he passed away at home surrounded by his closest friends and family. Since then we have been working hard to support the Bone Cancer Research Trust (BCRT). Supporting smaller charities, like BCRT, makes an enormous contribution to the specialist projects they are able fund and Als memory lives on. He was an inspiration as a twin, brother, son and friend. A fine young man. Please do help us support BCRTs vital work.

I am hoping to do everything I can to support this worthy cause and have a fundraising target of £2500 to raise for this life changing research. I hope to encourage at least 100 people to contribute £25 to the fund while accepting everything in between that will help support too.

If you are still unsure about donating to this cause and helping me achieve the goal of £2500 - I would like to EARN your donation and you can submit a personal challenge for me to accomplish in the run up to the event by completing this form here: https://forms.gle/4QKPhfSsDXNUZya6A
