Story

Drew was diagnosed with stage 4 stomach cancer in March 2023. Drew, his wife Amy and their daughter Ada, have been through a hell of a time since then. We participated in the Isle of Man Relay For Life in August 2023, raising a fantastic £3,614.80 in less than 3 months. Drew even made a surprise appearance at the Relay For Life, which won the "Cilla Black Surprise Surprise Award for best Relay moment!".

Then in October 2023, after 8 rounds and 6 months of chemotherapy, Drew's CT scan showed minimal cancer with 96% gone/shrinkage. This was a huge step forward for the family. Although he is not cancer free and this is ongoing, he is currently not receiving chemotherapy, but is still receiving maintenance treatment every 3 weeks. This is proof that the money raised at events like the Relay For Life does make a difference. We also had a great time at the event, and we had to come back after what has happened.
