Story
Tomorrow (2nd November) will mark five years since my breast cancer diagnosis. Maggie’s in Cardiff has been a huge support to me and I still go there regularly.
Throughout the month of November, I'm joining their national. raise £30k in 30 days.
I knew I wanted to do my bit, and my initial plan was going to be a daily lake swim. However after a nasty virus (likely COVID) in September, my body is still rebuilding its baseline energy. Many of you will know that walking is already a daily challenge for me due to my physical limitations (mild cerebral palsy causing tight hamstrings and ankle instability). I am committing to a daily mile every day in November.
Alongside the physical steps, I am tackling my packed cupboards. For every mile I walk, I am sorting, decluttering, and filling a bag of unneeded items to clear my physical space and donate the goods onward to spread the goodwill. I will donate any money I make on Vinted and Facebook groups to Maggie’s.
To match Maggie’s '30' theme, I am aiming to raise an initial £300 to add to the local pot. If you fancy sponsoring me, a donation of £3 or whatever you can spare would be amazing.
Quick Tip: When you checkout, JustGiving will automatically add an optional "tip" to your donation. You can opt out of this by choosing "Other" or "Custom Amount" from the dropdown menu and typing in £0, so you only pay the donation amount!
Thank you so much for cheering me and my little crew on!
