Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
In August 2004 my mum lost her ongoing battle with breast cancer, she was just 42 years old. Nine years on the pain is still as strong as ever and although I can not do anything to bring her back, I can do something to help prevent it happening to anyone else, by fundraising for a cure. My chosen charity is Breast Cancer Campaign, a charity very close to my heart. It was a severely challenging time for mum, dad and myself trying to battle it and we received some great support. So I feel it's appropriate to choose a challenge which will push me right to the limit...
On July 12th -13th I will be doing the 3 peaks challenge, climbing the 3 highest mountains in the UK; Ben Nevis in Scotland, Scafell Pike in England and Mount Snowdon in Wales.
All with a special twist....all 3 to be climbed in under 24 hours. Thats a total of nearly 3,500m of ascent in just one day with no sleep.
Mum was a brave and wonderful person. I hope lots of you will be able to donate something for my charity for what is considered one of the toughest challenges in the UK I'm about to do.
Thank you reading my story. Any support would be very much welcomed, my number is 07827 336277. A link to my challenge is http://www.breastcancercampaign.org/support-us/charity-challenges/charity-walks-and-treks/three-peaks-challenge
