In 2017, my mum Wendy Devaney was diagnosed with cancer. She underwent an operation to remove the cancer and unfortunately it had already spread. She had chemotherapy, which unfortunately didn’t stop the cancer from spreading further and her condition began to worsen. She was moved from the hospital over to Nightingale House Hospice, who throughout the period of time were supportive, caring and helpful in anyway they could to her and her family. I am completing this challenge in memory of her. 

We are SO PLEASED to have you with us on our third challenge a breathtaking 10 days conquering the one and only Inca Trail to Machu Picchu the worlds most important archaeological find and one of the New Seven Wonders of the World! Every penny raised helps us in our work caring for local people with life-limiting illness and their families as well as children experiencing bereavement.There are literally thousands of Inca Trails within Peru and many other charity events sound similar, but theres only one Inca Trail that leads through the majestic Sun Gate, and then onto the fascinating ruins of Machu Picchu! Thank you from the hospice for all your efforts and for challenging yourself in so many ways for us.
