On Sunday, 28th September 2025, we—Marie, Jess, and Victoria—will be lacing up our walking boots and taking on the 11-mile “Walk the Test Way” challenge to raise money for a cause very close to our hearts: Mountbatten Hampshire.

Mountbatten Hampshire provides compassionate, specialist care for people with life-limiting illnesses, as well as vital support for their families. Their team does truly incredible work, offering comfort and kindness when it’s needed most.

All three of us have been touched in some way by cancer, either personally or through loved ones. We know how crucial the work of hospices like Mountbatten is.

This is our way of giving something back. By walking the scenic Test Way—a beautiful 11-mile stretch through the Hampshire countryside—we hope to raise both funds and awareness for this amazing charity.

Our Goal: £500 (and beyond!)

We’ve set ourselves a fundraising target of £500, but it would mean the world to us if we could surpass that goal with your support. Every donation, no matter how small, will help Mountbatten continue its incredible work for those facing life-limiting illnesses.

If you’re able to, please consider sponsoring our walk. Your generosity will help provide compassionate end-of-life care to people in our community, and offer support to the loved ones who walk alongside them.

Thank you so much for your support and kindness. We’ll be thinking of every one of you with each step we take on 28th September.

With love and gratitude,

Marie, Jess & Victoria
