Story

I turn 50 this year. It’s also 5 years since I lost my right eye to cancer. So when a friend asked if I would join her on a LEJOG ride I said yes! I won’t be breaking any records and I fully expect to walk up some steeper hills, but I am looking forward to reliving some amazing memories as I cycle through landscapes I have lived, holidayed, studied, worked and walked through. All these activities were with friends and family and I hope to see some of you en route.

Maggies provided a place for me to cry, to process, to understand and come to terms with cancer. It was where I received counselling to help me with surgery and adjusting to a changed life. It also provided family counselling and was vital to help me regain literal balance through Qi Gong sessions. I’m raising funds to ensure these facilities remain available.

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
