On 7th June I and seven others are together attempting the National Three Peaks Challenge - we are planning to walk up the three highest peaks in the UK within 24 hours.  Now, I am not the most hearty and the thought of 24 hours without sleep let alone having to climb the three highest mountains in the UK is filling me with horror! BUT the reason we are doing it is to raise money for an incredibly worthy cause, and one which means a huge amount to me. 

We are raising money for the Teenage Cancer Trust.  As many of you will already know I was diagnosed with an extremely rare form of bone cancer when I was sixteen.  I was treated on TCT's first ever unit - the care was fantastic and it made going through the whole experience much easier because I was surrounded by other teenagers, some with the same type of cancer as me. 

Teenage Cancer Trust is an incredible charity - it is the only UK charity dedicated to improving the quality of life and chances of survival for young people with cancer aged between 13 and 24. They fund and build specialist units within NHS hospitals, bringing young people together so they can be treated together by teenage cancer experts, in the best place for them. The idea is that  every young person with cancer can have access to this specialist support, no matter where they live.
