The UK Forums Charity All Star Weekend is an ice hockey tournament being played on the the 25th and 26th July at Sheffield's IceSheffield ice rink.

It was set up so ice hockey fans from across the UK could get together & have a great time, playing the sport they (we) love. All while raising money for good causes!

This years tournament is raising money for eight charities and I will be part of the Breast Cancer Care team. 

(Please see the UKF website for the full list: www.ukfallstars.co.uk)

I am raising money to fight breast cancer after losing my mum to the disease when I was just five years old. 

I want to stop other people having to go through what I did as a child and hopefully with your help, a cure can be found one day. 

This will be the second time I have taken to the ice for team BCC and I'm calling for your help! Last year I raised £247.00 for the charity and I would love to raise even more this year!

Thank you for visiting my page and helping me to make a difference.

(Below are a list of forfeits and challenges for when I hit certain targets)

Thank you again,

Jake
