World Water Bombing Championships

17th December 2013

Make a splash in fancy dress at Water Bombing Fancy doing something different? Macmillan Cancer Support is looking for teams of four to bomb off the top diving boards in fancy dress - at Ponds Forge in Sheffield! The World Water Bombing Championships, celebrates its tenth year, and will be back with a splash on 7 May 2013 at 6.

30pm, and promises to be the biggest event yet! Bombers can get creative with fancy dress and team names for this wet and wonderful way of raising money for people affected by cancer. The event is sponsored by Matthew Twigg Foods suppliers of Pukka Pies, eBECS Experts in Microsoft Dynamics and Sheffield International Venues. Bombers will be launching themselves of either the 1m or 3m diving platform, for this fun event. Each team is then graded based on style, splash and presentation by a judging panel which includes two Macmillan nurses and a mystery guest. Over the next two years Macmillan is spending £2 million in South Yorkshire to develop a range of new services and posts in the city, including an End of Life Care project Team based across Sheffield Hospitals and in care homes who will support and care for patients, plus a 1-2-1 Support Nurse who will support Colorectal and Breast Cancer patients who have been discharged following treatment. To take part, each team pays a £20 registration fee and aims to raise a minimum of £376 sponsorship -. £376 could fund two Macmillan nurses for a whole day, giving vital help and support in Sheffield.
