Stewart, the 100 Mile Man

Dr Stewart Sale is one of our Area Sales Managers and he has been a supporter of Edgar’s Gift charity for quite a while. He has already raised money for this great organisation and regularly promotes their activities via social media.

Edgar’s Gift is a charity set up in 2010 in memory of Ben Edkins, who passed away following a year after long fight with cancer. He was just 25 when he died after battling Rhabdomyosarcoma, a rare and aggressive form of muscle cancer. The charity was founded by Ben’s parents Julie and Neil Bradman, alongside Ben’s family and friends – all of whom Ben influenced and had a special and positive effect on their lives. Edgar’s Gift aims to raise money to enable us to provide special days out, unique experiences and luxury gifts for young adults aged 18-30 who are suffering from cancer.

In September 2016, Stewart successfully completed the Equinox24 SOLO run for the Edgar’s Gift charity. Appleton Woods are very proud to announce that Stewart has also recently accepted to become an Edgar’s Gift Patron. We look forward to seeing his future philanthropic activities.

Making a wish come true for someone battling cancer is an enormous GIFT. Therefore, Stewart and the whole Appleton Woods family really do appreciate everyone’s kindness and we would like to say a huge THANK YOU to everybody who donates. Stewart will keep everyone posted and we will announce the final result in September.
