Thank you to the lovely members of the Fylde farming community, who came together to raise a fab £3,676 for us through an agricultural and country themed auction at Weeton Village Hall!

The packed event had Radio Lancashire’s countryside reporter Stephen Lowe as its compere and Bentham Auction Mart’s auctioneer Fred Spurgeon bringing down the gavel. A llama experience, meat hampers, a prize Christmas turkey and farm memorabilia were among the items that went under the hammer to raise this fantastic total! 🦙🥩🦃🚜

The auction was organised by Wharles crop farmer David Martin, whose annual Fylde Vintage, Steam and Farm Show has raised funds for us since 2018 - thanks so much for the continued support, David 🥰🙌

Thank you to the lovely team at @beaverbrooksthejewellers head office in St Anne’s for the wonderful continued support! ❤🙌

Each year, the company awards every team member a sum of money – this year it was £200 – from the Beaverbrooks Charitable Trust to donate to a local charity of their choice and seven colleagues from the company’s communications and retail support teams chose to support us, resulting in a fantastic donation of £1,400!

Shari Fox, Beaverbrooks’ communications team manager, said: “Within the teams are members who have a close connection to Rosemere Cancer Foundation through Rosemere Cancer Centre having treated family and friends.”

The Beaverbrooks team have supported us for a number of years, and their previous donations include a gift of £100,000 towards our recent 25th Anniversary Appeal to bring Surface Guided Radiotherapy Treatment to the cancer centre here at @lancshospitals, and donations in support of a joint initiative between us and @blackpoolteachinghospitals charity @blueskiesfund to build an acute cancer triage unit at Blackpool Victoria Hospital. The jewellers also kindly donate prizes to our annual winter raffle! 🙌

Thank you so much - your continued support makes a real difference for cancer patients across the region 🥰🌹

Thank you so much to #Blackburn dad and daughter team Mark and Kaitlin Haworth, who have raised a wonderful £2,310 through a 30-mile roller skating challenge 🤗🛼

The duo set themselves the challenge of skating 30 miles in continuous laps at @wiganrollerrink, which Mark, partner Chantelle, 17-year-old Blackburn College student Kaitlin and brother Ollie (14) are regular visitors of, for fun and family fitness.

In a three hour session, Kaitlin achieved their 30-mile target while Mark exceeded it by six miles. Cheering them on were friends plus Ollie and Chantelle, who is currently in a wheelchair after being diagnosed with Stage 4 cervical cancer a year ago.

Back in November last year, Chantelle (41) was told she had just three months to live without treatment but subsequent chemotherapy at the Royal Blackburn Hospital and a course of daily radiotherapy at the Rosemere Cancer Centre here at @lancshospitals, which Chantelle is part way through, has stopped her cancer from spreading, stabilising her condition and making her feel more well.

Chantelle said: “Mark and Kaitlin did brilliant. We are very grateful to everyone who sponsored and supported them.”

Among their sponsors were printer Mark’s employer, Clayton-le-Moors’ @surface_print_company, which match funded the donation he and Kaitlin raised. Roller rink pals Stephen Green and Summer Davis (17) also donated funds they raised skating to Mark and Kaitlin.

A huge thanks to everyone involved in raising these funds - they will help to make a real difference for local cancer care ❤🙏
