My story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

From Monday 11th April 2011 I managed a 102km Pilgrims Walk (1km for each 100 lives lost to prostate cancer every year) with friends from Tunbridge Wells in Kent through East and West Sussex to the Post Graduate Medical School in Guildford, Surrey. We took 5 days finishing at 1pm on Friday 15th April to raise awareness and £50,000 towards the Prostate Project appeal, a patient led support group, for further research and the marketing of the EN2 Urine Test for detecting Prostate Cancer early. We were met by Prof Hardev Pandha, Anne Milton MP and Nicholas Owen together with all the research team who had supported us along the way.

Day 1 The Pantiles, Tunbridge Wells to Martells, East Grinstead

Day 2 Homebase, East Grinstead through Queens Square, Crawley

Day 3 Horsham to Homebase, A264 and on to Cranleigh

Day 4 Cranleigh to Godalming and The Parrot Inn, Shalford

Day 5 The Parrot Inn to Debenham, Guildford and the PGMS
