Story

Thank you so much for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page 💖

On 6th November 2026, my best friend Jo and I will be taking on the Dalai Lama Himalayan Trek in aid of Breast Cancer Now—a challenge we were originally due to undertake in 2020, before the world paused.

This journey is deeply personal.

As many of you know, our dear friend Julie Mortimer sadly passed away from Metastic Breast Cancer in December 2010, aged just 42.

Since then, I have made a promise—to take on a gruelling challenge every two years in her memory.

I choose challenges that truly push me beyond what I feel I’m capable of. Because when someone is diagnosed with breast cancer, they don’t get a choice.

Through “Julie’s Legacy”, i have raised over £337,000 so far for this incredible charity—and I am committed to continuing this life long mission for as long as I possibly can, raising vital funds and awareness every step of the way.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast, and completely secure. Your details are safe—they’ll never be shared or used for unwanted emails. Once you donate, your contribution goes directly to the charity, making it the most efficient way to give—saving time and cutting costs.

Thank you for your support—it truly means the world 💕
