"MarFest" - raising money for cancer research
The Great Northern International Festival of Martial Arts (MarFest) is in its 12th year. Every year we use the opportunity to raise money for the local branch of cancer research UK in the North East of England. This year we are supporting the sarcoma project. The festival is on Sunday 24th June at Sunderland University "City Space" Centre, Sunderland, SR1 3SD. Please see out blog for further information: http://marfest-uk.blogspot.co.uk/ Together martial artists can help kick cancer, so please help us to make this our best fundraising year ever. Thank you
CAUSE
Sarcoma
Sarcomas are cancers that develop from any of the supporting tissues in the body, such as muscle or fat. That means they can develop and grow almost anywhere. Each year around 3,300 people are diagnosed with soft tissue sarcoma in the UK – that’s around 9 cases diagnosed every day. Donations can help Cancer Research UK find out what causes them and develop better, kinder treatments to improve the outlook for patients.
