Story
Welcome to my fundraising page for CoppaFeel!
On February 15th 2022 I found out I had breast cancer and it was “serious”. At the time I didn’t know what any of it meant, but I started to realise my life was going to be significantly different. With two young children seeing the differences and feeling all the feelings around us, I had to find a way to cope. Being part of the “C” club for me has meant learning how to focus on the things right in front of me while trying to not get swept up in all the “what if’s”. I am not shy about being an anxious person but I have been and still continue to be tested on this regularly, but the “what if’s” are becoming quieter. A year on and there is work to do, but I am determined to not let it stop me. Which is what lead me to the CoppaFeel trek.
This June I will set out on a challenging, extraordinary and life-changing trek, all in the name of checking chests! I will be taking on 100km of the rugged and unforgiving Hadrian's Wall Country in a bid to raise funds towards CoppaFeel's life-saving mission.Your donations will not only support my fundraising target, but most importantly CoppaFeel!. They are on a mission to stamp out the late diagnosis of breast cancer by making sure that young people are regularly checking their boobs, pecs and chests and getting to know their bodies in order to have the confidence to see their GP if something just doesn't feel normal. Thanks so much for your donation & support. To find out more about CoppaFeel! head to www.coppafeel.org.
