WHY I'M RUNNING FOR ALTRINCHAM VS CANCER ... BY JONATHAN GOOD OF HOPEWISER
I'm Jonathan Good of Hopewiser Limited. The business (and myself for longer!) have been around Hale and Altrincham for a long time, since 1982. Hopewiser provide address and name solutions for businesses of all sizes around the UK mainly, but also have an office in Melbourne, Australia and clients around the world. However, locally we are probably better known to people at Wilmslow and Bowdon rugby clubs, for sponsoring the Wilmslow Half Marathon (many years ago) and helping sponsor Wellington School to build their Sixth Form.
Fundraising for The Christie and anything that can help beat cancer is important to me, because a little over three years ago my father, Phil, died from it very suddenly. He went from being full of life, running Hopewiser, playing squash, gardening and generally enjoying a wide variety of life's pleasures in the summer of 2017, to becoming ill and then dying in a very short and awful manner. However, his last 22 days were at The Christie, who were amazing, looking after him brilliantly, including impressing him through-out with their morning meetings, as well as looking after all of us when visiting him. What The Christie did was great, but it would be even better if people did not have to go through it. It sounds like break-throughs in the fight against cancer are happening, but what The Christie provide will undoubtedly be needed for a long time, sadly.
