Five fab fundraisers went the extra 13.1 miles for Ark Cancer Centre Charity by taking part in the 2018 Basingstoke Half-Marathon.

Darren Barham, Mark Dolby, Darren Lovegrove, Faith Ruto and Raquel Searle all flew the flag for Ark at Sunday's event - and all five recorded impressive times on the challenging course.

He's an Arkrider legend and Ark Cancer Centre Charity champion - and on Sunday, marvellous Mark Dolby will be flying the flag for Ark at the Basingstoke Half-Marathon.

Mark, who is a director of Ark Our Partner business supporter Beaufort Financial, has already chalked up several sponsored bike rides, half-marathons, and even a hair-raising abseil down a Hampshire landmark to raise funds for, and awareness of, Ark's £5million appeal to help fund the new Hampshire Hospitals NHS cancer treatment centre at Basingstoke hospital.

He's an Ark Cancer Centre Charity and Arkrider legend, and one of the charity's great supporters - and today, Mark Dolby is our latest Ark video star.

Mark, who is a director of Ark Our Partner corporate supporter Beaufort Financial, has a very moving and personal reason for getting behind Ark and the NHS cancer treatment centre project campaign.

Ark has got some great Our Partner corporate supporters, and we are grateful to Paul Friend and his team at Face TV for producing the videos that are at the heart of our new campaign.

They've been piling on the pedal power all week - and the fabulous Beaufort Financial team got a helping hand from an England rugby legend.

Jeremy Guscott, who won 65 caps for England, hopped on one of the bikes that the Beaufort Financial team have been using to complete their Static Beano challenge.

They've piled on the pedal power from John O’Groats to Land’s End, London to Brighton, and from Basingstoke to Paris – and now the fabulous Arkriders are all geared up for another challenge in support of Ark Cancer Centre Charity.

The Arkriders have collectively raised nearly £180,000 for Ark Cancer Centre Charity’s £5million campaign to help fund a much-needed new cancer treatment centre in Basingstoke.

Fabulous fundraisers from Beaufort Financial really rose to the challenge of completing a daring abseil challenge in support of Ark Cancer Centre Charity.

Members of the Beaufort team, as well as some of their clients and business associates, took Ark’s fundraising to a new height when they abseiled 100 metres down the iconic Emirates Spinnaker Tower in Portsmouth on Sunday.

If at first you don’t succeed, try, try again – and that’s exactly what 18 fabulous Ark Cancer Centre Charity supporters did as they came, saw and conquered an abseiling challenge at a Hampshire landmark.

High winds on April 7 meant a team of intrepid fundraisers had to reschedule their attempt to abseil down the Emirates Spinnaker Tower in Portsmouth – so on Sunday, May 13, the determined team returned and completed the feat in style.
