Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
I have decided to contribute towards something that I feel very strongly about. In September 2011, I will be trekking to Machu Picchu in aid of Breast Cancer Care.
A diagnosis of breast cancer leaves no area of life untouched... It may cause confusion, isolation and fear... I want to raise as much money as possible for people affected so they get the best possible treatment and care!
Thank you very much to everybody who helped to organise and came to my fundraising event - Piano/Burlesque Charity Night on April 1. It was an amazing and unforgettable night! We have raised around £900 thanks to your generosity!
