We lost our amazing Mum to pancreatic cancer in May 2020. As the world around us went into lockdown, we, like too many others, had to manage grieving without being able to be together as a family.

Nearly to the day, 6 years later we’re taking on the challenge of walking 26 miles across the South Downs. We’re doing this to raise money for The Royal Marsden who treated our brilliant aunt Sheila, who we also sadly lost in 2013, so that they can continue their groundbreaking work towards a day when these stories of loss are ones of the past.

For those who have fought and won, for those who have fought and lost and for those still fighting - we walk for you.

The Royal Marsden Cancer Charity raises money to improve the lives of people affected by cancer. We ensure The Royal Marsden’s world-leading nurses, doctors and research teams can provide the very best care and develop life-saving treatments, which are used across the UK and around the world.

From funding state-of-the-art equipment and groundbreaking research, to creating the very best patient environments, we will never stop looking for ways to improve the lives of people affected by cancer.
