Welcome to my fundraising page for CoppaFeel!
This June, I will set out on a challenging, extraordinary and life-changing trek, all in the name of checking chests! Along with Gi Fletcher and some other famous faces, I will be trekking approximately 100km across 5 days in the Brecon Beacons, in a bid to raise funds towards CoppaFeel!'s life-saving mission.
This is something that’s completely out of my comfort zone but you know I’m not one for doing things by halves. Since losing Mam, I’ve felt like I’ve lost a part of myself and my identity. I applied to take part in this trek on a whim thinking how brilliant it would be to push myself in an extreme situation, and be supported by an amazing community of people, reminding myself of who I am, and helping others in a similar situation. Whilst I’m no stranger to raising money for charity and going for walks, 5 days of trekking in the Brecon Beacons is going to be an intense task and I’ll need your support in getting me there!
I need to raise at least £2250 to take part in the trek, which is no easy feat whilst we're all going through this cost of living crisis. Your donations will not only support my fundraising target, but most importantly they’ll support CoppaFeel!. I’ve known so many people in my life, sadly both directly and indirectly, affected by breast cancer and they have leant on the support of this wonderful charity to help them through. CoppaFeel! are on a mission to stamp out the late diagnosis of breast cancer by making sure that young people are regularly checking their boobs, pecs and chests and getting to know their bodies in order to have the confidence to see their GP if something just doesn't feel normal.
Thanks so much for your donation & support. To find out more about CoppaFeel! head to www.coppafeel.org.
