Project Christopher - Conversion from Transit Van to beautiful, yet practical camper van.

Those who know me will be aware of my dream to carry out a camper van conversion and to travel.

In June 2015 I was diagnosed with stage 3c triple negative breast cancer.
I underwent 6 months of chemotherapy, 2 surgeries and a 3 week intensive radiotherapy course. It was a tough time but I fought and got through it.
I got my life back on track running 2 marathons and got back to work.
I managed to get my work life balance right working 3 days a week, allowing me the time and energy to enjoy both my career and life.

I finally bought a van called him Christopher and started stage one of his conversion.

Then on December 5th 2017 after 6 weeks of feeling unwell I was given the devastating news that the cancer had recurred as secondary breast cancer in the lymphatic system of my neck, shoulder and chest.
I am absolutely devastated but also very determined to fight as hard as I can

Work on Christopher came to a standstill while I took stock.

It is now time to fight back, cancer will not steal my dreams.
As I go through my treatment Christopher is going to go through his too.

I am hoping that between cycles of treatment I will be well enough to travel even if it's just a few miles away!

CHANGE IN TARGET AMOUNT HERE IS THE REASON WHY ♡

My heartfelt thanks to everyone who has donated to Project Christopher, your generosity and messages of support have been overwhelming.

A number of my friends have organised specific fund raising event on 10th February and felt it would help them to gain more sponsorship if the crowdfunding target was increased as, beyond all expectations, the original target has almost been reached.

The full cost of the conversion is approximately £10,000 and so any additional donations the event raises will certainly help with the completion of Christopher's conversion.

Enjoy this journey with me my friends xxx
