Hi folks!

I am climbing Ben Nevis on Saturday 29 June 2013 with my new friend and fellow student social worker Tiffany Hall. We are climbing with a group (so far 33 of us!) and all of us are donating money to Macmillan Cancer. I am in the middle of a very busy year training to become a children and families social worker on a fast track (they weren't joking!) scheme called Step Up to Social Work and its showing itself to be a real mountain to climb!!

I want to do this in memory of my two wonderful grandfathers who we lost to cancer. They are safe with Jesus now but were two men who climbed many of life's mountains and always persevered. They both continue to be an inspiration to me.

If any of this resonates with you and you are able to support me even with just a little I would be so grateful!! Thanks, Rachel x

p.s your donations would also give me the boost and encouragement that I need as I start climbing the fitness mountain....yes I've joined the gym!

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
