Story

We're raising money for CCLG in memory of Dylan's daughter Ruby, who died of T-cell blood cancer aged just 18. Ruby's family and friends aim to raise £500k in total - roughly what the NHS spent trying to save Ruby's life.

This August, Ruby's Dad Dylan along with his friends Harry and Sasha are hiking the 3 highest Irish peaks in a single day. The Macgillycuddy Reeks reach over 1000m involving a long steep climb and then a blistering ridge walk.

Every penny raised will go directly to fund research to find better treatments for blood cancer so that more children & young people survive.

Ruby loved nature and the outdoors, but she always said:

Don't call it a hike, Dad... It's just a walk.

Well this is a real hike. Expecting some blisters to go with the views. In the photo gallery we've shared a few photos of Ruby on a couple of mountains and just making some funny faces. We miss her smile. :-)
