My Story

The Challenge: Cancer Research Fundraiser! What started as a bit of playful banter has now turned into something Gordon and Derek are seriously regretting – and starting to feel the pressure. For context, Gordon is a die-hard Falkirk FC fan, and Derek a Dunfermline FC fan, if you're familiar with Scottish football, you'll know that they are bitter rivals, The Bairns and The Pars. Now, here’s the twist, we have convinced Derek and Gordon to swap tops! Through clenched teeth and growing dread, both have agreed, Gordon to wear a Dunfermline FC shirt for an entire day and Derek a Falkirk FC shirt if we can raise enough funds for Cancer Research UK. This is where you come in! With your donations, not only will we raise vital funds for cancer research, but we’ll also get to see Gordon and Derek wear their rivals tops! It’s going to be a laugh, and for an excellent cause!
