In July 2025, myself along with about 30 of my Chewton Glen colleagues are challenging ourselves to take on the Jurassic Coast Mighty Hike to help raise money for people living with cancer.

This follows the devastating news that Andrea, one of our closest friends and the most amazing lady was diagnosed with cancer in 2024! Like the true warrior she is, she is fighting this with the support of friends and family, so we wasted no time in signing up to support and help out as well!

We would be so grateful if you could help us reach our joint pledge, which can pay for Macmillan Nurses. This could provide people living with cancer and their families essential medical, practical and emotional support.

There are currently 3 million people living with cancer in the UK today. It's Macmillan's goal to be there for everyone from the moment of diagnosis, but they can't do this without donations from people like you.

Any amount you can give is hugely appreciated and means a lot as Andrea and I have been friends and work colleagues for almost 20 years.
