Story

In May this mother and daughter trio from the Algarve, Portugal will be walking 10 miles for Breast Cancer Care in the beautiful Blenheim Palace grounds.

Mum (Julie Coulson) was diagnosed with breast cancer just before Christmas and having had surgery and treatment, has successfully kicked its arse!!!

Julie - it’s amazing how facing your mortality head on changes your perspective on life. One thing this has taught me is not to sweat the small stuff and to be happy every day.

Emma - My Mum has taken this experience and transformed her outlook on life. She has worked through fears and everything cancer brings and become the most upbeat, loving and positive human I know (literally). Her energy is contagious and addictive to be around and she’s constantly giving love. She’s the strongest person ever and I would be happy to become half the woman she is. Thank you for your strength and love, and kicking this in the arse. I am so proud and honored to walk with you and my sister Lina ❤ Carpe diem

As a way of giving back we decided to do this walk to raise some much needed money for this charity. The work they do is invaluable and the money will go toward future awareness and cures.
