Story

We are....** Binnys Babes **......

A duo of ladies ' Cyprus Brides To Be ' who came together on a social network site, planning our weddings abroad on the beautiful Island Of Cyprus. We shared ideas,hints & tips, shared the nerves too. Most of all we shared in the absolute Joy of our wedding day..

A wedding symbolises the start of a Life together to Love and cherish for ever more. 

Sadly for Fleur & Chris Binnington this was not to be, Chris was diagnosed with Germ cell cancer within the first year of married life. The prognosis was not good and so ' The Cyprus Brides ' came together again to offer support to both Fleur & Chris be it a text to say we are here for them both or raising money for days out to enable them to make memories for them both & their 5 children.

Chris fought this battle with his head held high throughout and all were in awe of his courage and determination. Chris' only wish was that he raise as much money as possible for Cancer charities.

Sadly Chris passed away very recently but ' Oh My ' he has left us all feeling overwhelmed by his courage and just by being Binny... Hence The Binnys Babes. 

Fleur & I have decided to push ourselves to the extreme and raise raise raise... So The Sahara it is!!

Fleur is a mom of two Daughters, Emilly age 14 & Charlotte age 10.Fleur is a School Councellor, loves Scuba Diving, travelling and is a real adrenalin junkie. Fleur not only lost her Husband when Chris passed but her Soulmate & her very reason for being. 

Leanne is a mom of two boys Luke age 22 & Jack age 13. Leanne is an Emergency Call Operator, loves travelling & spending time with the family.

The Sahara Trek is very much the most energetic thing we could ever attempt and will most definitely push us to our limits. 

We are raising money for Marie Curie Cancer Care which provides high quality nursing, totally free, to give people with Terminal cancer the opportunity to be at home with their families supported till the very end.

So please dig deep, give as much as you possibly can and with youre help we will smash our target and continue to carry out Chris' last wish... Chris once said If by taking this cancer and all that he has to bare means a child somewhere can stay healthy, ' So be it '... That was Chris through n through. 

This Trek is for you Chris, We know you are up there watching over the family keeping them safe and so we dedicate this to you...

GOD BLESS YOU BINNY......
