We’re your local hospice, supporting people with life-limiting illness across Cheshire West and Deeside. Our care is free, but only possible thanks to your support. We’re not part of the NHS and rely on local generosity to keep going. By donating, you ensure vital care lives on in your community.

Story

Back in February... 

Ki: Have you seen FarndonSoapBoxDerby.co.uk?

Rob: did not know that existed

Ki: We could sponsor something?

Rob: why dont we enter

Ki: I’m gonna! You want in?

Rob: yeah totally can build and test a cart then WIN. thin wheels, strong light chassis... and a fun overlay

Ki: EXACTLY 

It is now July and we have bought some bits, wasted some cash on other bits, wasted time on trying to buy a kart, looked up the apparently highly technical science on how to make a kart, so now back to making our own kart, had a battle over box or circley type metal, looked at woods and plastics....  and thought we should get the ball... and er, kart... rolling. 

Kieran also thinks this is a great chance to 'learn how to do fibreglass' which Rob thinks is a daft idea. We are now both going to learn about fibreglass.

Setting up this page was my (Rob) job, so please donate, it is a great cause plus I promised Ki this was all sorted....!
