Rosemere Cancer Foundation Trust aims to help cancer patients in the local area by funding cutting edge equipment, supporting innovative ways to take the fear out of cancer for patients, backing local research projects and facilitating top quality training.

The trust has special meaning for event organiser Andrew Hampsey and his family.

Andrew’s dad Patrick was a patient with Rosemere, and benefited from receiving experimental treatment from the trust.

The event is free to attend, but donations will be collected on the day, or can be sent directly to Andrew's fundraising page at https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/andrew-hampsey?newPage=True
