Story

So all of us girls turned 40 this year - I know its shocking isnt it?! We havent changed a bit since we all met at school 😜. In all the celebrations there has always been one person missing from the party, the life and soul of any party, our dear friend Louise. 

Louise passed away in 2015 after battling cervical cancer. We are marching in her memory. We are taking on a marathon Mighty Hike for MacMillan on the Causway Coast. This is a place where some of us lived with Louise during University. We all have lots of memories of her in this part of the world which we we will share, laugh and no doubt have a good cry over as we make our way towards the finish line. 

We all know someone that has been impacted by cancer and we would really appreciate your support.

On the 24th June 2023 the 7 of us are taking on the 26.2 mile MacMillan Mighty Hike, its an actual marathon! We have each pledged to raise £250 and would appreciate any support in reaching our goal. It could go towards funding a Macmillan Support Worker for two days who could provide emotional, practical and financial advice to someone affected by cancer. 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.

Thanks in advance, love from all the Muckers - Jude, Karen, Nadene, Emily, Leah, Annabel and Gemma xxxx
