The year 2024 has begun in a sombre and enlightening manner for Joe, Lily, and I, as both our mother, Nikky, and stepmother, Sarah, have been diagnosed with cancer. To demonstrate our steadfast love and support for these two remarkable women, and to raise money for people suffering countrywide with this terrible illness we will be participating in the annual South Coast Mighty Hike, walking from Brighton to Eastbourne.

Not only does June 8th occur shortly after the birthday of our late grandfather, Mike, who also passed away from cancer last year, but Sussex has also been a crucial part of our lives. We are excited to walk in the beautiful South Downs with and in honour of our loved ones.

Our mother loves a good trek so lets get going!
