As such, Skinny Sams will be pledging a percentage of its website profits to Over The Wall, and working on future fundraising events with the charity.

About Over The Wall
Last year, Over The Wall helped 300 children enjoy one of their holiday camps for free.
Held at Easter and during the summer holidays, the residential camps are a chance for children aged eight to 16, who have been affected by cancer and other serious illnesses, to have an activity holiday that might otherwise prove impossible, for many reasons.
They allow children who are ill to get away from the daily grind of being treated as a 'sick child', and enjoy a special holiday where they can be properly cared for, whilst exploring something new about themselves.
Founded in 1999, the camps are modelled on those created by Paul Newman in the States, which are called Hole in the Wall Gang. For more about their work, go to www.otw.org.uk
