Oliver Rofix was lucky to have survived LEUKAEMIA. He wouldn't be here without his donor and the support of family, friends and the various organisations dedicated to defeating this terrible illness.
He now wants to give something back and has set himself a challenge to sail single handed around the UK in a Valiant 18 sailing boat . In the process he he hopes to recruit 1000 new potential donors to the Anthony Nolan Trust as he sails around the UK.
Although he is now recovered this task is a physical strain for him, and he is emailing groups in advance of his arrival in ports around the Uk to ask if they would be able to offer any support whilst he is in a harbour near you.
Oliver is doing this sail "on a shoestring" and would welcome any support that may be on offer from a friendly chat, use of your shower/washing machine, a donation, advertising the fact that he is undertaking this challenge in order to recruit donors or a beer and a sandwich.
He apologises that he cant give more notice but he has to time his trips in order to take best advantage of the wind, weather & tides, so if you happen to be in Wells over the next few days please say hello.
