Wirral Half Marathon October 2013

They did it!!!!

Running over 13 miles (21 kilometres) over tarmac and across sand, through the cold, wind and rain of an October morning John Gill, Prof Simon Rogers, Andy Lyon and Neil Shallcross all successfully completed the Wirral Half Marathon to raise funds in support of the Merseyside Regional Head and Neck Cancer Centre.

Head On 2013

UPDATE - September 2013

The music event of the head and neck calendar was another sell-out success!

Vince Killen (event organizer, head and neck cancer patient, and mean bass player for 'Crowded Scouse') believes that the evening has raised about £2,800.

Certainly a great time was had by all - you could hear the music and festivities all the way down Bold Street!

Design a T-Shirt competion!

Yes - we need a new T-shirt - just for us.

It has to include the charity name and registration number, but apart from that the design is up to you!

You don't have to be the next Rembrant, a simple sketch will do. And indeed, simple designs tend to be the most effective!

Remember to indicate any colours of your design, and to tell us what colour you think the T-shirt itself should be.

Draw it out and post it to:

Mersey Tunnel 10k 2013 Update

On a sunny Sunday 9th June, Mrs Elizabeth Backland and her daughter Caroline successfully met the combined challenges of incipient sunburn, a dripping tunnel and 10 kilometres of unforgiving tarmac to complete the Mersey Tunnel 10k run in 1 hour 26 minutes.

"I know the winner completed the race in about 30 minutes, but we're really proud of our time, and that we did it together!"

Head On 2012

Just a quick note to say thank you to everyone who came, or donated, to Head-On 2012 on Friday night (26th October). The event looks to have raised around £2,600 to support the Merseyside Regional Head & Neck Cancer Centre, to support their clinical research into the early diagnosis and treatment of head & neck cancer.

That amount takes the total amount raised by the Head-On events over the last three years to almost £31,000. We really do appreciate your generosity and thanks to everyone for making it a great night.
