Mark Rutherford School

Mark Rutherford Schools Cover Supervisor, Joel Simpson, is fundraising for Pancreatic Cancer UK

The devastating financial impact of coronavirus has left nearly 40 per cent of charities and community groups in a worsening financial situation. It is ever more important to regain some normality and continue with community fundraising efforts.

Survival for pancreatic cancer has barely improved in the last 45 years. Around 10,000 people a year are diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, but it has the lowest cancer survival rate with around 9,000 dying every year. What better way to "fight" the battle than in a boxing ring.

Joel Simpson from Mark Rutherford School will be getting in the ring for his amateur debut in aid of Pancreatic Cancer UK on August 7th 2021 at Circus Tavern in Essex.

Joel said "I got into fighting as I have grown up always play-fighting with my mates with lots of wrestling and rugby so I have always enjoyed the more physical sports. When I was 17 I started fighting and now I have my first official fight for the Independent Booking Association (IBA)".
