Story

It's very seldom Michael and I would ask for sponsorship from our families and friends, however we both felt moved to do so on this occasion. 

In February of this year, after a tough few months for our family, we were grateful to be offered a therapeutic break for the four of us in Daisy Lodge, run by Cancer Fund for Children. This provided us with some much needed respite during a stressful time and we are very grateful for everything we were provided with by Cancer Fund for Children. The staff at the centre were amazing and couldn't do enough for us. 

Due to on-going recovery I am unable to do the climb, on this occasion, and so Michael will do it on our family's behalf.  Anything you can spare would be greatly appreciated. We have experienced first hand the good it can do.

Many thanks in advance,

The Nelsons
