The charity

THE CHARITY

"Sounds like a great plan, if slightly mad" was what an old friend said on FB and it got me thinking about why does anyone ever choose to do anything. Sometimes it might be for enjoyment or it might be just as a change or perhaps it might be a way of saying thanks. In Andrew's case this is his way of giving thanks to a group of people who have helped keep him going with his never-dampened enthusiasm. In my case it's cos I am indeed slightly mad.

To give a bit more detail about Cancer Support Yorkshire, and more especially "Andrew's story" click here

It's stories like Andrew's that drive people on to doing things that while they might be out of their comfort-zone they can help charities like Cancer Support Yorkshire to continue to give their invaluable support to families who might suffer in the future.

That's why Andrew wants to canoe 160 miles (originally in 8 days but now in 7, we have trimmed a day off!) so that his efforts can help raise funds for the work of Cancer Support Yorkshire so please look out for the Just Giving Page (don't worry we'll let you know when it's published!).

For me, I'm doing it cos I am slightly mad.
