Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. 

During the summer of 2018, I will be walking 2,650 miles from Mexico to Canada along the Pacific Crest Trail. I am looking to raise as much as possible for Macmillan Cancer Support to say thank you for all of the hard work Macmillan nurses and staff do for cancer sufferers and their families during times of need.

I have been lucky enough to spend the last 12 years working and travelling overseas. I have lived in 8 countries and travelled to more than 70. I have enjoyed hiking the world over, from climbing volcanoes in New Zealand, to the Inca trail in Peru, through to Mt Everest base-camps in Tibet and Nepal.

This trip, I want to give something back. I will be walking continuously for up to 6 months, from the Mexican border, through deserts, forests, ridge lines, over mountain passes and up to peaks, finishing in Canada. I will carry everything I need for that time on my back, camping in the wilderness along the way.

Follow me on this ultimate journey as I blog from the trail and please spare whatever you can for what truly is a good cause.

Fundraising is hugely important to Macmillan. Without people doing events, running marathons, climbing mountains, and donating in all the other ways that you can, Macmillan wouldn’t exist. 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.
