Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.
Over the past year we have been discussing ideas to promote Victoria's Promise, and raise money for this great cause. We have decided to cycle from London to Paris with the aim of completing it in under 24 hours.
In 2014 Ross's cousin Victoria lost her batter with cancer aged 29. Shortly after, Vicki's close family created Victoria's Promise to fulfil Vicki's promise to help and inspire young women through cancer.
After Victoria’s family saw first-hand the struggles that young women face during chemotherapy, as well as the aspects of care that were being overlooked, it was clear that supporting these brave young women was an area in which they could make a positive difference.
Victoria’s Promise have dedicated themselves to providing care in areas that are currently grossly under catered for. Women facing cancer treatment face a variety of challenges over and beyond the already daunting prospect of medical care and diagnosis. We aim to alleviate those concerns, by providing vital support in areas such as specialist skin care, chemotherapy beauticians, wig funding and counselling and advice services.
We are not keen cyclists so its gunna be a new experience of both of us. Our aim is to complete the challenge (Tower Bridge - Eiffel Tower) in under 24 Hours.
We appreciate how many charity events are out there at the moment, with so many people raising money, so please support us however you can. You can visit the official website at victoriaspromise.com. You can also see our progress on this page as we will upload photos, and through out Facebook page.
Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity. So it’s the most efficient way to donate – saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
Thank you,
Ross and Jolly xxx
