So committee members Paul and Bradley may have done something rather silly, considering their joint terror of heights. They have signed up for an abseiling event to raise money for Cancer Research UK on Friday 2nd October at the Francis Crick Institute building in London. This is going to test their nerves to the absolute limit but as every penny raised goes directly toward life-saving cancer research, every bit of fear worth it.
The full details of the event are below.

As much as a sponsored fall ...... sorry "abseil" 😅 was top of their to-do lists this October, they are hoping to raise as much money as physically possible in return for their adrenaline and would be delighted if you would be willing to sponsor them.
Please see the link below if you are interested in doing so.

Thank you so much in advance from all of us at Cuckoo for Cancer and good luck to Paul and Bradley xx
