Pancreatic cancer
Pancreatic cancer is the deadliest common cancer. More than half of people die within three months of diagnosis.
With research underfunded and left behind, people are left with only hope to hold onto. But they deserve more.
With your support, we could fund research breakthroughs to help PCUK detect early, treat better and save more lives.
That’s why PCUK is one of the charity beneficiaries of our Great Selby Bike Ride
YorKaos art exhibition
We were pleased to attend the opening of the YorKaos event at Sparks in York. The Kids’ art exhibition started in style with a grand opening, ribbon cutting, streamers, speeches and guest artist Lincoln Lightfoot.
There’s no charge to visit. Anyone can come along to view the work of hundreds of local artists aged 5 to 11, take part in the community portrait “Of time and place (2025)” and of course try the great food from the small local businesses at SPARK.
The exhibition runs till Saturday, 22nd February, 2025 and you can view the daily timetable by clicking on this link
Here are some photos from the first day:
Elmet Lions are pleased to have supported this event organised by Ada, Seth, HS and Mabel
