Two cancer patients who met by chance during a session of chemotherapy have launched project to create a battle bus for other patients and their families.
Ian Pierce 57 right, and Tony Evans 64 with their Lucky Man bus.
In the long term they are hoping the bus can even be used as a camper bus for families to be able to have short break respite. The single-decker bus had already been bought for the project by Tony, who has a shop in Corwen devoted to upcycling goods.He said:"I live by the mantra that, despite the cancer, I am a lucky man in life."Ian, who said he was in a dark place when he met Tony, said that they discovered a mutual desire to want to give back at a time in their life, catalysed by finding themselves also very much in need.
"They can have a coffee and a chat, share stories and generally support each other. The bus will have seating both inside and outside under a gazebo in warmer weather and, so important to chemo patients, a toilet.
