John O'Groats to Land's End · 9 July 2014

We raise money solely to support The Royal Marsden, a world-leading cancer centre. From funding state-of-the-art equipment and ground-breaking research, to creating the very best patient environments, we will never stop looking for ways to improve the lives of people affected by cancer.

Story

As many people may know, while I have participated in many sporting activities over the years, exercise is not a key aspect in my life, quite frankly I fear it. I would much rather curl up on the sofa with a cup of tea and read a book than walk 900 miles...

Yes, you read that right, myself and my enthusiastic boyfriend George Saw are going to walk approximately 900 miles from the very top of Scotland to the very tip of Cornwall. We are aiming to complete this walk in 7-8 weeks during the summer next year. 

The idea of undertaking this walk is one that has been embedded in our minds for a while now after hearing stories of George's grandfather completing it in 1995 after the passing of his young son. Though this incredible walk he managed to raise a massive £10,000 for The Royal Marsden Cancer Charity. We hope to match this total over the next year, if not more.The Royal Marsden Cancer Charity is an amazing charity that treat and care for over 50,000 people every year. 

We would appreciate anything you can give to help our cause, no matter how big or small. 

Thank you in advance for all your support.
