Hi there! My name is Isabelle (Izzy) and I am going to be trekking up Yr Wyddfa (Snowdon) in order to support Cardiff University's neuroscience and mental health research department, and their cancer research department! The trek will be taking place from 20-21 July overnight and will take approximately 8 hours!

Both research areas are close to my heart and that is why I am hoping to raise money by going on this exciting (and ever-so-slightly-scary) expedition! Cardiff's neuroscience and mental health researchers are developing new treatments for a wide range of debilitating conditions (such as ADHD, depression, schizophrenia, and Alzheimer's) and cancer researchers at Cardiff University are improving outcomes for people living with some of the most common cancers (such as breast, prostate and bowel cancer, as well as those that are rarer or hard to treat).

For more information about the challenge and the causes I'm supporting please see the following links:

It would be amazing to get as much support as possible for this great cause but even if you can't I am very grateful to you for taking the time to read this! I appreciate every donation (no matter how big or small)!

Diolch yn fawr iawn!

Isabelle
