M.A.D (Mums Against DIPG) Lakes Challenge

1 Challenge – 20 Women – 71kms – 24hrs – All for Children’s DIPG Brain Cancer Research.

On the 19th of January three mums, who lost their little girls to DIPG brain tumours, officially launched this incredible challenge event taking place in the Lakes on 25th-26th May 2013.  Their compelling story of why they are completing the challenge can be seen on this video.

Their team of 20 ladies includes the three mums who started it all, and they will be hitting the Lakes for a crazy 24hrs with one HUGE message…. to create awareness for Children’s Brain Tumour Research – The M.A.D Mum’s Against DIPG are coming!!!

Najrani golfers tee-up a fantastic cheque

David Miller (sister of Sandra, who was on the Hebridean Cycle) was the Club Captain at the Najrani Golf and Country Club, Saudia Arabia for 2012.  The Captain is able to nominate a couple of charities who benefit from fundraisers throughout the year.  We have just received a cheque for a whopping £3,200!!

Members took part in a number of fundraising events including raffles, golf skill challenges, Captain’s charity green and quizzes.  There were also donations from other charitable organisations in town of  Tabuk.

We would like to thank all of the golfers at Najrani, David and Liz for this fantastic effort.
