Story

Thank you so much for visiting my page and considering sponsoring me.

My mum would have been 70 this year; I miss her so terribly and because I can't throw her the huge party that I would love to, I am going to train for and walk a ridiculous distance in her memory to raise money for the wonderful people at Macmillan Cancer Care. It seems fitting to do a walk in her memory because she and I walked the dog together every day and we shared so much during those special times together. We'd often go along the Thames Path - we loved it there and I have had an ambition to walk the entire length of it for a while now. I'm not quite going to do that on this occasion, but what I am going to do is walk 100km continuously in about 24 hours. So I will start at Putney Bridge on the Saturday morning and walk all day and through the night until I reach Henley on the Sunday morning...hopefully!  

Anything you can donate will be going towards an amazing charity that helps so many people (and their family and carers) at an enormously challenging time. Through past events, I know sponsorship always helps boost training and give the impetus to carry on. I know this isn't going to be easy, but I want to give back to a wonderful charity that desperately needs more funding. They helped us, and now I want to help them.

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.

Thank you xxx
