Chris Allan and Rosemere Cancer Foundation

[p]Hello and thank you for visiting my sponsorship page for [b]Rosemere Cancer Foundation.[/b][/p] [p]From September the 1[sup]st[/sup] to the 7[sup]th[/sup] in 2017, I will begin cycling 520 miles through the French climbing almost 60,000 feet in the is time. This cycling challenge will be, by far, the most demanding thing I have ever done. The challenge itself will be the culmination of 16 months of training, spending countless hours in the saddle covering hundreds, if not thousands of miles.[/p] [p]Rosemere Cancer Foundation supports world class cancer treatment throughout Lancashire and South Cumbria. Our aim is to work in partnership with local clinical staff to achieve the best possible care for cancer patients in Lancashire and South Cumbria wherever they are treated.  We seek to do this by:[/p] [p]– Funding cutting edge equipment to help clinicians remain at the forefront of the fight against cancer.[/p] [p]– Supporting innovative ways to take the fear out of cancer for patients and their families during their treatment, making it as comfortable and stress free as possible.[/p] [p]– Backing local research projects that help improve our understanding of cancer and how it can be better diagnosed and treated.[/p] [p]– Facilitating top quality training to help clinical staff treating cancer patients be the very best they can be. [/p] [p]In 2015 the Rosemere Cancer Foundation spent £336,483 on projects that had a direct impact on cancer services across Lancashire and South Cumbria. It also committed a further £410,830 to long term initiatives that will roll out for the benefit of cancer patients over the next few years.[/p][p][/p] [p]Virgin Money Giving is a not for profit organisation and will claim gift aid on a charity's behalf where the donor is eligible for this.
