Wedding Dashers: Cycling to Italy in aid of Ovarian and Prostate Cancer
3582
Hello!
At the end of May, Damian and Humphrey will be setting off for an epic 18-day cycle from Kent to Salerno. Covering over 1400 miles and through two mountain ranges, they'll aim to arrive in time for the marriage of their beloved brother/son, Jacob.
Initially, this adventure started off as a fun father-son bonding experience, and an opportunity to work on their pre-nuptial T-shirt tans.
However, in recent months, the struggle of a close family friend with Ovarian cancer has reminded us that this is also an opportunity to raise money for causes that need our support. Target Ovarian Cancer does fantastic work helping those suffering with the illness as well as funding early diagnosis efforts, and we're proud to be supporting them.
At the same time, we'll also be raising money for Prostate Cancer UK. 1 in 8 men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer during their lifetime, so please remind the men in your life (especially those over 50) to get checked. Early detection is incredibly important for what is often a very treatable disease.
Any donation is hugely appreciated. And, if you'd like to stay up to date with our journey, we'll be uploading regular highlights here, and you can follow our exact route on Strava.
Grazie Mille!
