In just over 3 weeks Myself and my Mum (Kath Thorp) are participating in a 10 mile hike across the undulating terrain of the Holme Valley. This will be done within a group of mixed ages and backgrounds from the community as part of 'What a Bunch of Walkers' annual event.

This event aims to simultaneously raise funds for a number of charities whilst promoting community spirit and camaraderie. The walk can be tough, especially crossing from one side of the valley and back (twice) with it's steep climb, but with the support from other walkers (and ibuprofen) I will keep putting one foot in front of the other until I reach my goal.

My chosen charity is Heartburn Cancer UK via The Clara Dixon Trust (https://clara-dixon-trust.muchloved.com). The trust raises money for heartburn UK in memory of Clara Dixon who was sadly taken too soon from oesophageal cancer, which, due to the way it can present, is often mistaken for heartburn in the early stages, especially in women

In a large show of support for the cause we would appreciate anything you would be able to donate.
