Go Bubbleheads!

All of us at Wessex Cancer Trust are rooting for Andy, Chris, James and Lewis – four deep sea divers known as The Bubbleheads, as they prepare to embark on their 3000 epic rowing race across the Atlantic. They’re going to great lengths to raise money to support local people living with cancer.
