London Mighty Hike 2024 - full marathon · 1 June 2024 ·
Back in July 2017 we completed a Mighty Hike together with work to provide support for Macmillan, little did I know that cancer would affect me and my family so suddenly.
In October 2023, within the space of three weeks cancer hit me in and my family in different ways. My mum got diagnosed with early stage lung cancer, my sisters partners dad got diagnosed with throat cancer and I found out that tragically that my friend Dan, aged 30 had died after a brief struggle with melanoma. I decided I need to do something to give back to those who are going to support my family through this.
In June 2024, I decided to take on another Mighty Hike in London to raise vital funds for people affected by cancer.
I asked my friends and family for support, but instead of a donation they agreed to join me on the walk so this page is for;
Elliott Rae, Gemma Evans, Lou Day, Alex Day, Emily Stubbs-Benbow, Sam Stubbs-Benbow and Natalie Townsend.
We have pledged to raise £2000 and would appreciate any support in reaching this. By fundraising our pledge, we could pay for a Macmillan Support Worker for nearly three weeks who could provide emotional, practical and financial advice to someone affected by cancer.
