J D Wetherspoon

At Young Lives vs Cancer we want J D Wetherspoon staff to be as involved as possible in the partnership! We have a dedicated team who answer queries from staff and provide them with fundraising ideas as well as supporting them with their own brilliant ideas. We also arrange huge bespoke events such as KICK, a national five-a-side football tournament spanning 17 venues and finishing in a grand finale at Wembley, a national darts tournament taking place in pubs across the UK and working with them on limited edition pin badges which raise funds for Young Lives vs Cancer and are only available in J D Wetherspoon pubs!

J D Wetherspoon chairman Tim Martin said:

About the partnership

The partnership launched in 2002 and has continued to grow year on year.  We are so grateful to J D Wetherspoon customers, employees and local communities who have all played a part in fundraising to support children and young people with cancer.

We are excited to see what more we can do together to help young lives against cancer.

Helping young people with cancer
