Mick’s Inspirational Journey

Mick Pilling London to Paris

Sam and the team at our Haverhill branch are getting behind fundraising for Macmillan Cancer Support, to support a local and loyal customer, Mick Pilling. Mick has beaten head and neck cancer into remission but is once more battling cancer, in the form of bowel cancer.  Sam tells us “Mick is a well-known and respected guy in Haverhill, always positive and truly an inspiration to so many people.  Despite battling cancer he is going to undertake – for the third time – the London to Paris bike ride. Mick has started Chemotherapy today and has been given the medical go ahead for the ride. It’s a grueling ride, covering nearly 500km in just four days, taking on strenuous hill-climbs as well as all that time in the saddle!  That’s tough enough for anyone but Mick’s fighting cancer and despite his energy and youthful outlook is actually over 60!”

To help Mick raise as much money as possible for the charity that has helped and continues to help him and others affected by cancer, there’s also a quiz night on 17th June, at Costa Coffee in Haverhill, with all proceeds going to Macmillan.  For more information, you can contact Mick on 07900 011110.  Our Haverhill team will be there (no mention of wooden spoons, please!)

To help Mick & Macmillan improve the lives of people affected by cancer come along to the quiz night or donate on Mick’s Just Giving page here.
