Norwich Girls' fundraising page
Thanks for visiting our page! On the 8th October 2011, we'll be walking 10 miles in Norfolk to raise money for the amazing work that the Astro Fund are doing for brain tumour research - in memory of our dear friend Gem who is greatly missed by friends and family.
Brain tumours now account for more deaths among children and those under 40 than any other cancer. Through sponsoring us, you can help in the aim to find a cure for this devastating disease.
Here you can sponsor us and donations will be quickly processed and passed to the Astro Fund. Virgin Money Giving is a not for profit organisation and will claim gift aid on a charity's behalf where you are eligible for this.
We really appreciate all your support and thank you for any donations!
