Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

This year I am taking part in 5 organised bike rides to raise money for The Christie:

4th June "Tour de Manc" 100k.

11th June "Manchester to Liverpool" 55 mile.

9th July Manchester to Blackpool" (as part of The Broughton Trust for Christie team. Thanks for inviting me to be part of your team!) 63 mile.

3rd September "Manchester 100 mile" 100 mile!

17th September "LCL Share the Road" approx 70 mile.

The script is the same as previous years. Please donate as little or much as you can. I know we shouldn't have to do this but the hospital needs public funding to carry on the wonderful work they continue to do.

This year the money I raise will go to the two departments below:

·         Teenage and Young Adult (TYA) Unit Fund – donations fund a number of different project in the fight against cancer in children and young adults. Including research into new treatments and the causes of the cancers which affect young people, providing the best facilities, equipment and environment for the treatment of our patients. Donations also fund some staff posts within the unit, such as the play therapist.

·         TYA Activity Fund – donations fund activities to help young patients to cope with cancer treatment and the boredom of having to stay in hospital, including leisure and social activities, music therapy and art therapy. E.g. they have weekly pizza nights where patients can invite their friends over for pizza and to hang out in the games room.

Cheers, John
