Former top-level motocross rider and industry figure Mark Hucklebridge is again fighting cancer after being diagnosed with the disease for a second time and is now raising funds for the Forver Friends charity.
Hucklebridge, or Huck as he is known, thought he had beaten cancer in 2010 but recent scans revealed it has returned to his lungs and pelvis, and it is now inoperable so he has turned his attention to fundraising with wife Emma, starting with a half marathon and auction.
“All the money raised will go to the Forever Friends Appeal. They are developing their cancer unit and want to be in the top five in the UK for research and care. Dyson is a big sponsor as well as MJ Church and through myself have pledged to raise £50k this year,” he said.
“Before I start my treatment Emma and myself are running the Bath Half marathon with lots of our friends, as a group we have already raised over £2500 so far.
“I would personally like to thank everyone who has donated gifts and have brought items. Let’s hope that your donations will help the doctors to find a cure for Cancer soon and a cure for me.
“I would also like to thank all of my friend and family and especially my wife Emma for being so strong for our little family. I’m going to fight this as long as I can to spend as much time (hopefully many years) doing great things with everyone around me.”
