My story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Why am I doing this -

How about you watch my video

You may know my lovely friend Emma Marshall (nee Criddle) who's recently found out that she has Stage III Breast Cancer. She's been amazing through everything so far, even though she’s just had a masectomy at the age of 35 and still has to endure chemo, losing her hair and nasty drugs and treatments.

Emma remains really strong emotionally and has inspired me to try and match her strength by raising money for Breast Cancer Care. I plan to do this by cycling across the Andes to the Amazon in Peru as a means of raising money. I chose Peru as it’s a real challenge and I'll be attempting to cycle at high altitudes which make it even harder.

I don't want to be all sanctimonious about it, but know that unfortunately many of us have had our lives touched by cancer and I know that you may also want to power together to help. Here's some ways you can do just that:

- join me! There's room for others on the trip. More details here

-train with me (I know there's lots of cycling enthusiasts out there)

-donate whatever you can via this Just Giving page

-spread the word!

-follow me on Twitter @_Sweet_Caroline #cycle4cancer and 'like' my Facebook page!


Thanks for listening.

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 and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
