The charity are based in Pontefract and offer care for patients with life-limiting diseases.

The entire Castleford squad and coaching staff successfully took on the Yorkshire Three Peaks in aid of the Hospice during pre-season.

"So, for some reason I have decided to sit on a Wattbike for eight hours to try raise a little bit of money for the guys over at The Prince of Wales Hospice," said Massey.

"We work closely with these guys at Castleford Tigers, they are a terrific charity that work tirelessly to ensure their patients have the very best care available to them.
