SYLA renews cancer research support with champagne event

19th April 2016

The Scottish Young Lawyers’ Association is to hold a further event in support of a group of legal and business professionals who raise money for cancer research.

The Endless Champagne Ceilidh will take place at the Royal College of Physicians in Edinburgh on Friday 20 May, with proceeds being shared between the Cancer Research Racquet movement and Marie Curie Cancer Care.  

In the words of founder Rob Kinas, Cancer Research Racquet is "an international group of US, UK and EU legal and business professionals, who love the game of tennis and who raise money for cancer research". He adds: "On occasion, we celebrate our efforts and our friendships with a glass of champagne! We care about cancer research because many within this group have fought the battle. They, their families and friends have benefited from recent advances in drug development and treatment protocols. We show our gratitude by raising funds to further advance the research to benefit others.”

For a £40 donation, guests will be offered "endless champagne", traditional Scottish food, the chance to participate in a charity raffle, an opportunity to hear from Mr Kinas, and ceilidh dancing from the Jack Dames band. Tickets for the ceilidh can be obtained by clicking here.
