Hi!

I decided to take part in a fundraising trek following the Stevenson Trail in the Cevennes region of France at the end of September. We will be walking 18 to 28 km a day, covering 100km in 4 days (ascents of 2560m and descents of 3410m).

It's a personal challenge (undoubtedly!), but most importantly I'm hoping to raise a significant amount of money for the Olivia Hodson Cancer Fund (www.ohcf.org). Olivia died in April 1996, aged 2 1/2 years from a malignant germ cell tumour. The fund was set up by her parents and family friends to help other sick children by supporting vital research projects at Great Ormond Street Hospital.
