Rally your mates to raise funds for Sumner

Rally your mates and fellow squash players and be part of an exciting all-day and all-night ‘squashathon’ to raise funds for a worthy cause.

Purley Squash Club is holding the overnight event to raise money for 11-year-old Sumner Malik, who was last year diagnosed with terminal cancer.

There will be a free food and live music, including non-stop house and Ibiza classics, with money raised going towards the Sunshine4Sumner fund.

Sumner, of Haywards Heath, Sussex, was diagnosed with the incurable illness last year and people from within the squash community have been doing their bit to raise funds for treatment ever since.

The event runs from 5pm on Friday 23rd June to 5pm on Saturday 24th June. Entry is £15 individually or £75 for teams and the ticket price includes buffet food in either the morning or the evening, depending on the time you play.

Don’t worry if you don’t have a team because you’ll be assigned to one when you get there and will have plenty of matches to play. Sign up today and help bring sunshine to Sumner!

Sumner Malik was diagnosed with terminal cancer at the age of 10

Sumner has Diffuse Pontine Intrinsic Glioma (DIPG), a form of brain tumour that cannot be operated on.

His family are raising funds to enlist him in a medical trial for a new treatment that could save his life.

England No.1 Nick Matthew recently donated his $70,000 winnings from the Canary Wharf Classic to the cause.
