Grump’s Team

We're raising as much as we can to beat cancer

Story

On the 20th August 2024, we received the phone call that no one wants. Our Grumps, who gave the biggest hugs and always made us laugh with his reaction to embarrassing questions, had passed away from cancer. In the few months before this, we had to watch our Grumpy-Dad that we knew all once knew, slip away as the cancer spread. 3 of his grandchildren and 2 of their partners are running a 5km Race for Life in memory of him, in the hope the money we raise will mean other families won’t receive this phone call, or witness the decline of there loved one as we did. Grumps, we hope we make you proud, and you’re looking down on us smiling, with a John Smiths in your hand. We will be sure to have a drink in your memory afterwards.
