FUNDRAISER HALL OF FAME

“[Fundraising] was an opportunity to show my dad I’m thinking of him even when I’m not there, to show appreciation for everyone at The Christie, and to push myself at the same time.”

Peter did 2 drag shows in February 2023 at the age of 83 to raise money for The Christie charity and to remember his wife Ann.

“We now have a wonderful team of friends… all keen to help, and I am so grateful for their support… 2023 will see our efforts continue, full of enjoyment and laughter as it has always been.”

"Our club members were very keen to help fundraise for The Christie… there is no better way to fundraise than mixing it with an activity we all enjoy.”

“The Christie is an incredible local charity that has a wide-reaching, international impact. Our support is… a way of thanking The Christie for their remarkable contribution to this area and the many lives they have impacted.”

“With the help of family and friends we pulled off a great event which resulted in nearly £16,000 for The Christie… It was amazing to be able to tell my story and raise awareness of the work The Christie does.”

“The challenges are never going to be easy, but I imagine some of the pain and heartache some patients have to go through on a day-to-day basis, an 8-hour run is nothing!”

“We all have our own relationship with cancer so supporting The Christie was a unanimous decision… [The Christie charity] is absolutely essential and every donation counts.”

“The Christie helped my mum with treatment… I am deeply thankful for the support of The Christie, which has meant I can still hold my mum today.”
