Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I've wanted to do "something" for a few years now, but never believed I could due to the usual...family, money, time constraints etc.

Then last September the lovely Giselle Cowie lost her 6 year battle against cancer, aged just 43. (Her youngest child of 3 is only 7 years old & will never remember her Mum being well.)

She supported "CoppaFeel!" Charity, even trecking up Mount Kilimanjaro & raising thousands for them...

Even though she was, by no means a close friend, something about her & her amazing family has inspired this journey of mine & has made me believe that I can and will make this happen.

I shall be walking the "Camino de Santiago", starting October 2016 & (hopefully) finishing around 30 days later. It's about 800kms & I'm doing it alone, carrying everything I need on my back. (Please google it for more info, it's a well known route through the French Pyrenees to Santiago, North West Spain)

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity. So it’s the most efficient way to donate – saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

Please sponsor me & let's raise loads of money for "CoppaFeel!", an amazing charity which really does deserve our support and also for Giselle, whom I will be thinking of whenever the going gets tough & I start to doubt myself.

Again, thank you for visiting my page & please, dig deep! Hx
