A pool tournament has raised funds to help a Burntwood teenager complete his ‘bucket list’.
Grangemoor WMC host the event each year to support different good causes – and this time they chose to back Stephen Sutton and the cancer charity he supports.
The 18-year-old has drawn up the list after being diagnosed with an incurable cancer.
A spokesperson for Grangemoor WMC said: “Stephen wrote to our committee and they were all moved by his story.
“As a result we made the decision to support his cause.”
Members of the club will also be hosting a fancy dress evening tomorrow (April 26), together with a raffle and auction.
As part of his list, Stephen is aiming to raise £50,000 for the Teenage Cancer Trust (TCT) – a target he is halfway towards achieving.
“TCT have helped me hugely throughout my journey and has helped shape who I am today,” said Stephen.
“They offer hope and a sense of community to young people who have cancer and directly help face the associated pragmatic and emotional issues.”
People can donate to Stephen’s cause online.
