Story

 

First of all, THANK YOU for visiting my page :-)

As you will know I am (attempting to!) raise £3,500 for Marie Curie Cancer Care by trekking the Great Wall of China!

This is a worthwhile charity providing in-home care for terminally ill cancer patients, ensuring that those precious last moments are the most comfortable physically and mentally, allowing patients to pass away in the comfort of their own home with their family around them.

If I manage to raise the entire £3,500, this will pay for 175 hours of a nurse's time. Just think about how many people this can help!

All of us have unfortunately had someone close to us, or known someone close to us who has been through cancer

Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
