Story

One of my best friends was diagnosed with prostate cancer. He encouraged me to get a PSA test just for peace of mind.  This set me on a course toward a cancer diagnosis but thankfully, had caught it early.  I received first-class care from the Prostate Teams at Royal Cornwall and Derriford Hospitals and am now keen to raise awareness since being given the all-clear. 

This Summer, a team of us is embarking on a challenge of cycling John O'Groats to Land's End via the west coast, climbing the Three Peaks - Ben Nevis, Scafell Pike and Yr Wyddfa (Snowdon) on our way. This is a cycle of approx 1300 miles with a height gain of around 66,300 feed (more than twice the height of Mount Everest!) and a climb of about 11,200 feet.  We are planning to camp, wild swim, draw and raise as much money as possible. 

Thanks for taking the time to visit my fundraising page. Donating through Just Giving is simple, fast and secure.  Your details are safe, and they will never sell them or send unwanted emails.  By giving to this page you are helping me meet my fundraising targets.
