My story

I will be trekking up Mount Toubkal the highest mountain in North Africa's Atlas Mountains in September to raise money for Marie Curie Cancer Care. 

Most of us already know a good friend of family member that has already been affected by or sadly lost their life to cancer. What you may not know is that 1 in 3 of us can expect to develop it ourselves at some point in our lives.

That's what this 'trek and fight for life' is all about, to do what we can to help find a cure, to treat and help alleiviate the suffering of those unfortunate enough to be affected by it. 

I hope and trust therefore that you will dig deep for Marie Curie Cancer Care and help make a real difference to the lives and families touched by cancer, by sponsoring me today.

Donating through this site is really simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Marie Curie Cancer Care will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.

So please sponsor me now!

Many thanks for your 'gift for life'.
