Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Last year I walked 1000 miles virtually from Lands End to John O Groats.  Most of the miles were walked over the beautiful Somerset Levels, sometimes with family and friends and sometimes with just the company of a good  audio book.  This year I decided I would walk home, a mere 848 miles.  It was going really well, I was 90 miles ahead of where I should have been, and then in April illness struck me. The uncertainty and need for major surgery was difficult, but I was one of the lucky ones and received the news I didn't have cancer.  Many women, including friends are not so lucky and face a challenging battle with this awful illness.  So I have decided to use my walk to recognise their courage and to raise funds for research into all female cancers. 

I hope you can help me keep walking with a donation to this excellent charity. I am gradually catching up and am determined to reach home! 

Thank you

Celia
