On Saturday 16th April 2016, a determined family group took on the Yorkshire Three Peaks to raise awareness around neuroblastoma, and a nearly £2000 sponsorship for Candlelighters, in memory of Pierce White Carter.

Dom White who was leading the group said, “During Pierce’s two and a half years of illness, Candlelighters provided us all with support and supplied the hospital wards where he was receiving treatment with things to help keep the children entertained and their spirits up: games, books, jigsaws, games consoles, TVs, DVDs, toys – the list goes on.

What they do is fantastic as sometimes the children just need to feel like they have their home comforts. Candlelighters go a massive way in helping to achieve that.”

We want to say a huge thank you to Dom, Lucy and family for taking on this challenge in support of Candlelighters, and for their kind words about how they were helped through some really tough times.

If you have ever thought about walking the Yorkshire Three Peaks, what better way to do it than with the full support of Team Candlelighters? There are a few places available to join us at our event on Saturday 28 May 2016. Just click here to sign up.
