Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...

We’re absolutely delighted that so many climbing events and competitions are inviting us to attend with a pop-up shop/stall where we can sell our lovely CAC merch’ to finance cancer-related projects.
As you may or may not realise, we are a merry bunch at CAC but a small one nonetheless. We’d love to say yes to all the invitations we receive but travelling to and attending events in the evenings and on the weekend can take its toll. We’ve got a particularly stacked calendar during February and March this year…
This is where YOU come in! We’re looking for supporters to visit our bijou little boutique at the different events. When you see what’s involved you’ll realise it’s (a) not too hard and (b) quite a lot of fun. It would be lovely to get to know you better, too! We hope to be able to put together a pool of volunteers, dotted around the country/countries, who we could call on when we hear of an event near them. We obviously provide stock and a payment terminal, so don’t stress on that front. And we’ll hold your hand and show you how it all works, until you feel comfortable to go it alone. You’ll be a CAC sales executive in no time!
What do you get in return? Most importantly being part of the CAC family and knowing you are contributing to financing cancer-related projects. CAC is almost solely run by volunteers and we understand that you might hesitate if you think there are costs involved. If this is an issue for you, then CAC may be able to offer travel expenses to events. Become a regular and we’ll provide you with a CAC T-shirt! And volunteering and representing CAC at events means you get free entry!
Obviously, the more people we have to share the dates, the less time and travel is required of each of us! Imagine if we had a network of volunteers worldwide!!
So if you’ve planned to attend any of the events below, or realise one’s happening near you, we’d love to see you. Even if you can only spare a few hours, that would be fantastic.
