We are Gemma and Katie and are treking the Great Wall of China in October 2011 to raise money for Arthur Rank House.

We are treking the Great Wall of China for Arthur Rank in memory of both of our Nans who died of cancer. Arthur Rank cared for Gemmas Nan in the last days of her life and the care she and all the familly recieved was exceptional. As a student nurse Gemma has just completed a 4 week placement at Arthur Rank House working within the In-patient unit and hospice at home and thought every minute there was fantastic and everyone works at such a high standard and noticed that they do not recieve enough recognition in what they do.
