Sean Newman

Sean is my wonderful husband and fantastic father to our 16 year old twins. He started and is still running his own business in Dover, Kent. In 2007 he received the news that he had testicular cancer. After prompt treatment and follow on care he was back on top form. He felt he needed to give something back in some way and in 2009 he completed a cycle ride from Amman to Aqaba in Jordan, to raise funds for the Multiple Sclerosis Centre in Canterbury. He also makes personal donations to the Orchid charity and Lance Armstrong Foundation. This year in November he is completing another challenge to raise funds for the MS Centre, cycling through Rajasthan in India. He is always enthusiastic about the fundraising he does, as a family we support him wherever we can. He is our hero, he is someone to be proud of, and we're glad to be part of his life. I would like to nominate him and let him have his time in the limelight by being a Torch Bearer.
