Yesterday Monday 15th February; Hostec, combined with many other organisations to show our support for International Childhood Cancer Day. Also known as Ring a Bell for Ben, cathedral bells across the country were ringing to raise awareness about childhood cancer research and honour the life of Ben Clarke who lost his young fight with cancer in 2008.Approximately five of our Hostec team members were up early on the rainy morning selling golden ribbons for the occasion at Wynyard train station. With the head organiser of the event being the International Confederation of Childhood Cancer Parent Organisations (ICCCPO), St Andrews Cathedral in Sydney rang their bells with a large gathering of people there to mark the occasion.

In association with Cure Our Kids whom we’ve shown our support to in the past, a big congratulations must go to the team there for organising volunteers. Also a big thank you our Hostec volunteers for their charitable efforts.
