RENOLIT Cramlington employee carries Olympic torch
Published:  09 August, 2012

Financial controller for RENOLIT Cramlington Neil Douglass was honoured for his charity works by becoming one of the torchbearers ahead of the London 2012 Olympics. 

In October 2010 Neil’s world was turned upside down when he was diagnosed with chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML) - an extremely rare type of blood cancer.

Since his diagnosis Neil has raised nearly £10k for Leukaemia & Lymphoma Research which provides support and offers hope for a cure.

 “I was originally nominated in June 2011 and never thought I would actually be chosen,” says Neil. “The anticipation built as 15 June approached. Thousands of people lined the streets and cheered me along my stretch of road in North Shields, Tyne & Wear. It is an experience I am very lucky to have had and one I will never forget it. Carrying the flame was an incredible honour, only made possible by the support that friends, family, colleagues and RENOLIT have shown in supporting my charity fundraising for Leukaemia & Lymphoma Research.”
