The Macmillan connection
Over the years we have had much help from the Macmillan Cancer Support team at York.

From the top (left to right): Wilma Burniston , longest serving between 1995 and 2004, before she moved to the Darlington area, always ready to lend a hand and even jump on a bike.

Nicky Hawkins was on a temporary watch looking after Leeds at the same time; she is now concentrating her attention on that city. Karina Stead took over from Nicky, but has since left Macmillan for "pastures new and we wish her luck. Since January 2008, Shelagh Hopkinson has taken up the challenge of area Fund Raising manager and has been working well to promote the Great Milk (stout) Ride over a widening range of events including the York Cycle Show and It's a Knockout, both at York's famous Knavesmire racecourse. We look forward to even more help to help Macmillan Cancer Support in the future. Roohi Lupton, Community Fundraiser works from the york office and will be attending the 2008 event to help present the medals, certificates and Macmillan "goodies".
