Hi everyone,

We’re Chris Briggs and Iwan Jones from Exeter Airport Fire & Rescue Service, and this summer we’re taking on a huge challenge: walking 100km over 2 days to raise vital funds for Young Lives vs Cancer.

One half of the team, Chris, was inspired to support this incredible charity by a deeply personal story. Ten years ago this July, his sister-in-law, Kaley Fitzsimmons, tragically lost her life at the age of just 33 to a rare form of bone cancer known as osteosarcoma. Her strength and courage continue to inspire this fundraising effort.

Our trek will take place on July 19th, covering 100km through the breath-taking landscapes of the Gower Peninsula in South Wales.

We’re doing this to support children, young people, and their families facing cancer. Every donation—big or small—will make a real difference and help provide the care and support they urgently need.

Please support us by donating through this page and help us reach our fundraising goal. Your generosity means the world to us and to those we’re walking for.

Thank you so much for your support!

Chris & Iwan
