Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Over the next four weeks, whilst I am working from home in lockdown I am going to climb the equivalent of Scafell Pike on my home stairs, that is 412 flights, for Cancercare. Now more than ever those who are facing a cancer diagnosis need somewhere to turn for support. Your money will enable taht to happen.  

The internet says that Climbing Scafell Pike is a serious undertaking and should not be underestimated. Whichever route you take, it's a tough, steep hike which involves scrambling over hard terrain. Planning and preparation are key whatever the season - there could be high winds, rain, snow, extreme cold or poor visibility. I am sure the same can be said of the stairs!!!!!!!

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
