Jennifer Kirkwood is raising money for Ayrshire Cancer Support
In memory of Paul Kirkwood

Inflatable 2.5k and the Ayrshire to Beatson Walking Challenge

Ayrshire Cancer Support have been providing practical and emotional support for people affected by cancer in Ayrshire for over 40 years. Help us continue to provide our essential services at no cost, to the people of Ayrshire.

Story

Ayrshire Cancer Support have been supporting us since Paul's diagnosis and now with coping with bereavement. We want to raise money in Paul's memory to help support the charity with the wonderful work they do for families like us. Jordan,Emma and I will be taking part in the 2.5k inflatable obstacle course on the 23rd August and then Brandon and my parents will join us on a 5K walk on the 31st August to start off the September Ayrshire to Beatson challenge. I aim to walk a total of 72 miles in September, the boys will join in with some of the walking too.

Ayrshire Cancer Support run their Ayrshire to Beatson Challenge every September, encouraging supporters to fundraise by walking, running, cycling or swimming a distance of their choice, to represent the distance Ayrshire Cancer Supports volunteer drivers cover daily taking patients from Ayrshire to the Beatson Hospital.

With current fuel prices, each trip to the Beatson costs our drivers roughy £55*. Cancer patients often need this service multiple times a week for months or even years!

Without our volunteer drivers, many patients would be unable to access the life-saving treatment they need. Your fundraising is essential.

We encourage individuals, families, schools, businesses or anyone to get involved this September for Ayrshire to Beatson month.

Remember, everyone has different abilities, so pick what works best for you!
