Draig O'r Mor Fastnet Campaign Begins in a bid to raise £10,000 for Sail 4 Cancer
Kay & Kevin Stibbs are delighted to be entering Draig O'r Mor in the Fastnet Race again this year. Final preparations are being made to make Draig race ready for her first qualifying race, Cowes to Le Havre, over the May Bank holiday weekend. In order to qualify for the Fastnet race, Draig must complete 300 nm in offshore qualifying races so the Myth of Malham race to Eddystone rock & back (late may bank holiday) and the St Malo race ( July) are on the race calendar.
Many of you will know Kay was diagnosed with Breast Cancer shortly after the 2009 Fastnet Race. After a year of gruelling treatment the charity Sail 4 Cancer gave her family a sailing holiday in Turkey to help get their lives back on an even keel. Now the Stibbs hope to raise £10,000 for Sail 4 Cancer so that others can benefit. You can make a big difference.
Please visit their website www.draig4fastnet.co.uk where you can follow the campaign and make a donation. Every penny raised goes directly to Sail 4 Cancer and is not used to fund the campaign. Only 500 people need to make a donation of £20 to reach the £10,000 target. Of course every donation is welcome so please give what you can to this fantastic charity and please leave a message of support to spur Draigy on through their campaign
