Brains SA Captains Climb
15 Welsh captains will be embarking on an unique adventure when they will attempt to climb to the Roof of Africa to raise funds for lung cancer research in Wales. Mount Kilimanjaro stands at 19,340ft \ 5,985m and the Welsh players will be tackling the world’s highest standing volcano in September 2010 as part of the Brains SA Captains Climb. Brains' pubs throughout Wales will be adopting each player, and fundraising events will be taking place in the lead up to the Climb.
Peter's Foods are also supporting the Brains SA Captains Climb, by donating £250 for each try scored by Wales during the Autumn Internationals.
Velindre Cancer Centre launched The Stepping Stones Appeal in January to raise the profile of lung cancer research in Wales, and to raise the money necessary to fund and expand our research projects. Nearly 2,000 people are newly diagnosed with lung cancer in Wales each year.
Despite encouraging progress over the last few years, lung cancer remains a difficult disease to treat. By supporting the Brains SA Captains Climb you will help us to advance our research into lung cancer, stage by stage and step by step. For more information on the Stepping Stones Appeal, please look under the Our Appeals section of this site.
