Hope for Tomorrow
 
Forming part of her private collection, this print is integral to the estate of the late Christine Mills MBE, who in partnership with her late husband David, forged a successful career within motorsport spanning more than thirty years. Following David’s untimely death from cancer in 2002, Christine established Hope for Tomorrow, a Gloucestershire based charity dedicated to bringing cancer care closer to the homes of patients throughout England.

With charity patron Sir Stirling Moss OBE by her side to ‘cut the ribbon’, Christine launched the world’s first Mobile Cancer Care Unit on 14 February 2007. Cancer patients are by the very definition and nature of the disease from which they suffer, perpetually vulnerable and never has the provision of mobile treatment on board what is now a fleet of 13 units, each funded and supplied to NHS Trusts by the charity, been of greater importance than it is today.  
 
In support of the charity’s pioneering work, all monies generated from the sale of this print, will be donated to Hope for Tomorrow.

Registered charity number: 1094677
