A group of Wilkie employees are taking on the Dundee Kiltwalk Mighty Stride this August to raise money for Young Lives Vs Cancer.

One of our Directors put forward the heartbreaking and courageous story of her close friends whose little girl Riley, who at only four years old was diagnosed with Leukemia. She has been has been so incredibly brave and has about a year left of treatment. Heartbreakingly in April Riley's little sister Georgie, who turns two in July, was also diagnosed with Leukemia. This was an incredible blow to the family

This is so incredibly rare for two siblings to have this condition. The family have received support from some amazing charities supporting them through this turbulent time financially, emotionally, send them on holidays, arrange toys/ food, etc.

This story touched the hearts of Wilkie employees as this is something no family expect to deal with once let alone twice. We asked the family which charity they would like us to raise money for in dedication to their cause - Young People Vs Cancer.
