We are an independent charity dedicated to putting our region’s cancer needs first, funding pioneering research to tackle the cause, improve the care and find the cure for cancer. We focus on the types of cancer that affect people living across North West England and North Wales the most.

Story

On the 20th November 2010 we will be embarking on an arduous cycle across the diverse terrain of Taiwan for Clatterbridge Centre of Research.

We start in the Southern most tip and battle through mountains, valleys, gorges and canyons to reach the towns of Fenggang, Zhiben, Wuha, Hualien and Taroko to the final destination of Taipei. We cover a colossal 292 miles (470 km) over six gruelling days and really need your support.

We are completing this challenge for CCR in memory of Leah’s husband and our friend Mark Gorry. Mark sadly passed away from testicular cancer on the 29th November 2009. Our challenge will conclude on the one year anniversary of Mark’s death.

During Mark’s year long battle with testicular cancer he began to set up a foundation to raise awareness and work towards raising £1 million for Clatterbridge and supporting charities. We are proud to be completing this bike ride for Mark and his vision.

Thanks for your time and support,

Andrew, Leah, Paula & Kevin.
