ALK-positive lung cancer is a rare disease that often affects younger non-smokers, many with young children. It is usually diagnosed at Stage 4, when there is no cure. We support, empower and advocate for best practice to improve the overall survival and quality of life of patients across the UK.

Story

On Saturday 11 May, 40 Village lions from all across the business will take on a 7k assault course through plenty of mud, to help raise money for ALK Positive, in memory of Mike.

As many of you will know Mike sadly passed away on the 5 April at Stoke Mandeville Hospital, surrounded by his immediate family.

Mike, being the amazingly brave and proud man that he was, soldiered on despite being diagnosed with lung cancer about six months ago.

Mike was a true gentleman, funny, clever, kind and totally genuine.

We will all miss him hugely.
