Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

On 6th Nov 2026, myself and best friend Jo will be trekking the Dalai Lama Himalyan Trek for Breast Cancer Now, which we should have attempted in 2020 however the world shut down.

As some of you may know, our friend Julie Mortimer died from Secondary Breast Cancer in December 2010 aged just 42 years and since then , I have committed to every 2 years, to undertake a gruelling trek across the world.

I choose challeges that I feel i wont be able to complete, for the simple reason that when somebody has a diagnosis of Breast Cancer - they dont get a choice.

To date, I have raised nearly £300,000 for this amazing charity through "Julie's Legacy" and I will continue to raise vital funds and awareness for as long as I am able to.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
