This week we chat with Frank Fletcher who’s been running the Ellen MacArthur Cancer Trust in East Cowes for 18 years. 


‘A Londoner living on the Island’ - he tells us how the Trust has gone from humble beginnings in Cowes to a UK-wide operation offering sailing trips to hundreds of young people who’ve been through treatment for cancer every year.
