Story

At the start of May 2023 I, along with 19 other amazing ladies,,some of who have had or have cancer, will be taking part in a 5 day mountain trek in Croatia.   We will be reaching heights of 1401m (higher than Ben Nevis! ) .

We all have so much respect for all those who work tirelessly for those who suffer from cancer, need end of life care and support their families.   I am lucky to be able to volunteer once a week and see first hand the amount of work that goes on behind the scenes to enable Highland Hospice to carry on the great work that they do.

I, like many others, have family members who have suffered from the horrible disease.

I appreciate you taking the time to read this blog and am truly grateful for any donations that are made.

Thank you xxx

This 5 day trek will see the team trekking long and tiring days through the mountainous Istria Peninsula in Northern Croatia. The ladies are determined to complete the challenge to support Highland Hospice patients and their families and all have very personal reasons for taking on the challenge, some having experienced cancer themselves, others who have lost loved ones and will be trekking in their memory for Highland Hospice. Any support would be gratefully received.
