My wife is being treated for cancer. All the staff looking after her, from the consultant to the volunteer with the tea trolley, but especially the nurses who have been with her all day long, have been incredible - friendly, compassionate, helpful and always cheerful.

It's time to give something back and searching for a fundraising challenge I came across the Mighty Hikes list and decided to give it a go. My two sons have 'volunteered' to help me complete it.
