Story

Take 2 for 2023:

Following our Mum's recent 'all clear' diagnosis from neck cancer, Teagan and Laura were sure they wanted to do something to raise money for the wonderful Macmillan nurses and also to do something a little challenging (more so for some of us unfit 30 year olds!) to show our support and pride in how amazingly she smashed out this year.

The diagnosis came at the end of 2020 after a challenging year where not only dealing with the Covid pandemic, but also the deterioration and passing of her Dad, and our Gramp. Anyone who has experience with Dementia will appreciate the strain, sadness and trauma this can cause. So, when grieving his passing and then her diagnosis, the year of 2021 was not as beautiful as we may have imagined. However, the strength, determination and courage she has shown has been unexplainable.

She, for sure, is 'Not your average Jo'.

Jo and Nathan are on the fundraising team and will cheer Teagan and Laura on from the sides.
