If you're interested in following our journey we will be posting updates along the way on instagram : @popintoporto</div><div><br></div><div>The purpose of this challenge is to raise money for the three following charities which have been selected by each of us...</div><div><br></div><div>1) Helen Rollason Cancer Charity</div><div>This charity is based in Essex. They provide support to people with all kinds of cancer throughout and after treatment. The charity is named after the BBC broadcaster Helen Rollason who believed that a 'good quality of life when coping with cancer is the most important gift a sick person can receive'. One of us has experienced second-hand the support this charity can offer to a family member under going treatment for breast cancer.&nbsp;</div><div><br></div><div>2) Altzimers Society&nbsp;</div><div>This charity has 40 years experience and knowledge for supporting both people suffering with dementia as well as their careers.
