Marie Curie is here for anyone with an illness they’re likely to die from, and those close to them. Whatever the illness, wherever you are, we’re with you to the end. We bring 75 years of experience and leading research to the care we give you at home, in our hospices and over the phone.

Story

My beautiful Karen lost her 13 year battle with breast cancer in January 2015 and died in my arms.  Her memory must live on for ever, and hopefully, by setting up the Karen Williamson Foundation this spring, together with my passion for challenge walks in her name, we can raise much needed funds for cancer charities. I will be donating to Marie Curie in 2015, who cared for Karen for part of her final illness. Karen's Foundation will be supported by a personal legacy which will enable donations in support of Cancer causes in her name to carry on for over 70 years.

I will be embarking on a 500 miles series of long distance walking challenges in 2015 starting in April and initially covering:

The Epping Forest Challenge - 18 miles

The Hertfordshire Challenge - 26 miles

The Surrey 3 peaks Challenge - 26 miles

The Ridgeway - 87 miles

Offas Dyke - stages 1 - 3 - 45 miles

Hadrian's Wall - 83 miles

Cumbrian Way - 70 miles

I will update with new challenges as I dream them up.

Support me on my journey by donating in Karen's memory. I will be posting a blog along the way with funny stories and pictures so you can keep up to date.
