Story

Last year my best friend of over 20 years was diagnosed with breast cancer and underwent a double mastectomy. Thankfully she has now recovered without the need of chemo or radiotherapy but her diagnosis (and subsequent surgery) came as a shock as she is one of the fittest, healthiest and most active people I know. It goes to show that Cancer can hit any of us at any time. 

As Sarah recovered she decided she wanted to organise a charity challenge that would help her give something back and hopefully help prevent others from getting breast cancer in the future. 

Now Sarah never does things by half so she's managed to persuade a group of her friends and family to join her on what will be an incredibly physically and mentally challenging journey - we are going to hike up the UK's three tallest mountains and cycle between them - almost 500 miles of cycling, 26 miles of hiking and over 3400m of ascent - all in 6 days!

So I appreciate you visiting my page and our team page (3Ms) and any support you can give us will help a lot. We've set a big target but deservedly so as this is a very big challenge - the biggest thing I have ever attempted to do in my life! Hopefully we can make a big difference! 

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.
