Story
Thank you so very much for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page which is in memory of my dear sister Julie who, some of you may know, we lost to Leukaemia nearly 10 long years ago. This year, I wanted to remember my sister by doing a challenge, something that I hadn't done before, to hopefully enable me to raise some much needed money for Bloodwise (formerly Leukaemia and Lymphona Research) to help them continue their great work in research and helping others and their families who are affected by this disease.
So, on the 16th July 2016, which will be the 10th year to the day that we lost Julie, Nicola (Julies daughter) and I will be trekking to the top of 5 of the highest peaks in the Lake District in 1 day:
Scafell Pike - 978m
Great End - 910m
Esk Pike - 885m
Bowfell Pike - 902m
Crinkle Crags - 815m
We shall be trekking around 12 hours, covering 15 miles of mountainous terrain and ascending more than 1500m in total, which is higher than Ben Nevis! And we even get to carry all of our own supplies for the whole day!
I know not all of you knew my sister, but you know me, and I'd love your support. Anything you could donate to my cause would be much appreciated.
Thank you for visiting my page
