Story

Jack is back 🚀

Jack, the inspirational human has been super-busy since our last update!

• Skydiving Success: our bucket list buccaneer jumped from a plane at 10,000 feet!🪂

• He is now an official and vital volunteer for the charity, a role he is INCREDIBLY proud to hold. (This guy gets stuck in where it counts!)

• He’s started college, diving into Travel and Tourism -(trains, buses, and rollercoasters all over the country can’t wait to meet him).

In between conquering the skies and challenging complex maths problems, Jack is as heart-warming and hilarious as ever. He still loves kicking back with a Greggs corned beef savoury, but he’s broadened his horizons now to Burger King!

Jack’s a guy who really knows how to live - turning every challenge into a chance to help others.

And thanks to YOUR help and generosity Jack has stormed past his original £50,000 fundraising goal 💪❤🙏

So of COURSE he’s moved the goalposts…

to a YES! Together-we-can-do-this £100,000!

Your donation will enable Young Lives vs Cancer to make a genuinely positive difference to the lives of young people who really need their help.

Help Jack reach his new, even bigger goal. You're the best.

Thank you. 🙏❤
