Originally intended as a one-off event to raise money for The Queen Alexandra Hospital in Portsmouth which cared and looked after Karen whilst she was ill, our first fundraising event was held at the Eastleigh Lakeside Steam Railway in Hampshire on Tuesday 26th August 2008 and raised over £3,500 for the hospital.
In the years that followed, we have continued raising money for a variety of local good causes, primarily those that benefitted cancer patients and their families.
In August 2020 we were granted registered charity status by The Charity Commission with a sole purpose of advancing medical research into lymphoma blood cancer.
