Story

Thank you for visiting our page. We are very excited to be taking on this trek in memory of our niece Rachel Standen and our nephew Dennis Towers.

Rachel died in July 2024 at St John's Hospice, aged 38. Dennis died unexpectedly in 2023, aged 35. We feel this is a challenge both he and Rachel would love to have taken on. Both of them are much loved and missed by us all.

This will be a real challenge for us both, but we are looking forward to fudging-it for two special people.

Any donation is greatly appreciated.
