We're taking on the Kid's Summer Challenge for Young Lives vs Cancer.

Want to join us in supporting a good cause?

We're taking on the Kids' Summer Challenge for Young Lives vs Cancer, and your contribution will make an impact, whether you donate £5 or £500. Every little bit helps. Thank you for your support.

Young Lives vs Cancer helps families find the strength to face whatever cancer throws at them. But every day, 12 more children and young people hear the devastating news that they have cancer. Make a donation and show your support today.

Just a £26 donation could fund an hour of support from a Young Lives vs Cancer specialist social worker, ensuring children, young people and families always have someone by their side throughout their cancer journey.

£70 could pay for a night in a Young Lives vs Cancer Home from Home, a free place for families to stay close to specialist hospitals when their child is going through treatment, keeping families together.

Join me in supporting a good cause. Your contribution will make a big impact, whether you donate £5 or £500. Every little bit helps. 

Thank you for your support.

Hi everyone! 😊

We're Ffion and Erin, and this summer we're taking on a challenge to complete 1 mile every day to raise money for Young Lives vs Cancer.

We know that one mile doesn't sound very far, but doing it every single day is a big challenge for us. The best part is that we can complete our mile in lots of different ways!

I, Ffion, absolutely love horses, so some days I'll be riding. If I’m out riding, I might even trot for part of my mile! Horses are my favourite thing in the world, so I'm really excited to include them in the challenge 🐴

I, Erin, love acro, dancing to K-pop, and I think koalas are the cutest animals ever! 🐨 I can't wait to complete lots of my miles with Kevin the Koala, and maybe I'll even cartwheel a little bit along the way! 🤸

We're doing this because we want to help children and families who are going through really difficult times. Every child deserves to have people there to support them, especially when they're poorly. We hope that by taking on this challenge, we can help make a difference 🫶

Some days will probably be easy, and some days might be harder if it's raining or we're tired, but we're going to keep encouraging each other and do our very best to complete our mile every day 💕

If you'd like to support us, we'd be so grateful. Every donation, big or small, will help Young Lives vs Cancer continue supporting children and their families when they need it most.

Thank you so much for cheering us on and helping us make every mile count! 🥰

Love,

Ffion & Erin 💜🩷
