Story

Thank you for taking the time to visit my JustGiving Page I am raising money for FORCE Cancer UK by walking solo from Lands’ End in Cornwall to Lyme Regis in Dorset along the South West Coastal path. A total of 462 km in 6 days from 2/5/22 to 7/5/22.

You can check the route out at: http://www.gps-routes.co.uk/routes/home.nsf/osmapdisp?openform&route=south-west-coast-path-walking-route

Why Force Cancer UK?

One in every two of us will be diagnosed with cancer in our lifetime. In December 2020 my mum was diagnosed with early-stage breast cancer, thankfully she has completed treatment and the prognosis is good. FORCE provided her with assistance in the form of physiotherapy and support during her diagnosis and treatment.

FORCE help people suffering from cancer and their families through every step of the diagnosis, treatment and aftercare. All their services are free ranging from a drop-in centre to complementary therapies and counselling. They even take their services into community hospitals across Devon and have exercise programmes around the county. They also fund local research and help buy equipment to improve patient care and fund specialist nurses to deliver chemotherapy in their outreach locations.

How will the money raised help?

The COVID pandemic has severely affected charities abilities to raise funds and so many charities are finding themselves facing huge funding gaps. I hope in whatever small way I can, I will be able to help close that gap and enable these amazing charities to continue assisting people in need in the coming year.

Your donations mean so much to me both personally as they will spur me on through the walk but also for MIND and FORCE please consider helping these charities by assisting them in closing their funding gaps and enable them to continue to serve us, our friends and families in their time of need.

Your support and donations are hugely appreciated and will really help these two amazing charities to continue their incredible work.

If you‘d like to join me for any part of the walk then please do get in touch. Or you can follow my progress on instagram and strava.

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.
