We help families dealing with kids cancers to keep them together and provide support.

Story

Cheshire Woman of the Year 2014, Lynda Hill founded ‘The Joshua Tree Holiday House and Support Centre’ in 2005, aiming to provide families of children with cancer much needed support during an incredibly stressful period of their lives.

Land has been bought in Cheshire and full planning permission has been granted.  Fundraising is continuing in earnest to raise the £1.9 million needed to build the Centre.  Almost £1 million has been raised to date but clearly much has already been spent on the project.  A highlight of the end of last year was the launch of their interim Support Centre by the Lord Lieutenant of Cheshire David Briggs.  Lynda is thrilled that families are now being offered a support service and is very excited about the future opening of the main Centre when funds allow.

We hope to help them along the way by raising funds through various events in the pub towards this fantastic centre.

Your support is greatly appreciated!
