Black Tie awareness event for Brain Tumour Research – Hosted by City Couriers Direct
A special dinner is being hosted by Chesterfield’s City Couriers Direct to raise awareness and funds for Brain Tumour Research on 20th May 2023.
The event, taking place at the Technique Stadium will bring together local people and businesses to highlight the funding required to help tackle the illness.
It will further support the wide range of initiatives taking place to raise funds for the charity, such as the landmark ‘Tour De Football’ bike ride, which will see riders travel the length of the country visiting each of the 20 Premier League football grounds.
Darryl Claypole, Managing Director of City Couriers Direct has joined together with a number of other charitable organisations including the Dellaglio Foundation, Police Benevolent Fund, and Mango Football to give an opportunity for other charities to join Brain Tumour Research in the challenge.
Darryl’s son Tom was diagnosed with a grade 4 glioblastoma brain tumour 2 years ago. They were horrified to discover that less than 1% of all cancer charitable funding goes to Brain Tumour Research. Last year they undertook a John O Groats to lands end cycle ride. Darryl’s wife Sylvia undertook a wing walk, and the pair of them climbed Ben Nevis together.
Guests at the black tie event will be treated to an evening of entertainment, with food, drink, music, and speakers all to be confirmed. To find out more, email george@citycouriersdirect.com.
