This event has been organised to raise funds for Schiehallion Fund part of Yorkhill Childrens Foundation all money raised will go towards the Schiehallion Ward at Yorkhill Hospital(Paediatric Oncology& Haematology). Adam spent 10 months on this ward as he fought Leukaemia. He underwent numerous courses of high strength chemo as well as a stem cell transplant from his sister Emma, but unfortunately lost his battle in september 2007. We would be very grateful if you could dig deep for a very worthwhile cause and help other children to fight these battles.
