Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

On 3rd September 2022 I'm planning to walk 55km in one day from Eastbourne to Hove to raise money in memory of Lola, who died on 22nd August 2021 from cancer; just after her 15th birthday. 

As many of you know I'm not at my top physical peak (although that bar is quite low) so training and the charity walk will require quite a lot of determination and effort on my behalf but that is a mere fraction of the strength, determination, bravery and hope that Lola managed throughout her illness. 

Young Lives vs Cancer offer essential support in a variety of ways to families who are going through desperate times and help them through a journey that no family should have to go through. 

Please give what you can to support this fantastic charity so they can continue to give invaluable support to other families like my closest friends Jo, Simon, Alfie and, always in our hearts, Lola. 

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.
