Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.  For a number of years I have wanted to embark on climbing this mountain but never thought it would be possible.  I love walking and spend many weekends walking in the Lake District with my hubby, Robin and our dog Nellie, which has provided a good training regime for the trek. Anyhow with the support of a like minded girlie like myself, the dream is becoming a reality and we shall be making this journey in June.  In the process of this decision, I wanted to raise money for a charity that is dear to my heart, Breast Cancer Care. 

It could be your friend, your sister or your mother.  We all know someone affected by breast cancer, some of my very dear friends have experienced this first hand and we all know that it changes everything.  But you can help.  Breast Cancer Care offers care, support and information to all people with breast cancer and by supporting me you can help to keep the invaluable services free.  With 58,000 people diagnosed each year - a number which is increasing - our support has never been in more demand.

Breast Cancer Care is the UK support charity for anyone affected by breast cancer.  They offer free confidential information, practical advice and emotional support, helping people to find a way to live with, through and beyond breast cancer.

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.
