Event: Cornwall Coast Mighty Hike 2024 - full marathon, on 31 August 2024
In memory of Louise Cox
In August 2024, we're hiking a half or full marathon along the picturesque Cornwall Coast to raise vital funds for people living with cancer.

Story

As many of you will know, September this year marks 10 years since our Mum Louise passed away from a rare form of cancer, Wild-Type GIST.

She was a keen walker and could regularly be found striding out ahead of the rest of us on the South-West Coast Path.

In her memory, on the 31st August 2024, Greg, Dad and I have decided to take on the challenge of completing a 26 mile long stretch of the Cornish Coastal Path from Padstow to Newquay and welcome any of her family or friends to join the team on the trek or support us by donating what you can to our fundraising effort.

Mum was a remarkable individual who remained determined, busy and positive throughout her illness and did her best to support others in the same situation. Macmillan gives people with cancer a fighting chance, providing vital care and support to the individual and their families. Your donation will enable them to continue their great work.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and secure. Your details are safe, JustGiving - they'll never sell them 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.
