The Big Climb: Raising Hope, One Summit at a Time! · 8 August 2025

We‘re the world‘s leading cancer charity dedicated to saving and improving lives through research. We fund research into the prevention, detection and treatment of more than 200 types of cancer through the work of over 4,000 scientists, doctors and nurses.

Story

This September 5th and 6th, a slightly bonkers team of four will be hauling ourselves up Ben Nevis and Scafell Pike over the weekend to raise money for Cancer Research. This trek is not just about reaching the summits; it’s about honoring those we have lost, supporting those who are still fighting, and contributing to the incredible work that Cancer Research UK does every day. Oh, and it also happens to be my 50th birthday celebration too; what better way to celebrate half a century on this spinning rock than by dragging our aching hips up a couple of mountains with friends for a fantastic cause?

We’ll be climbing in honor of loved ones lost, those still fighting, and all the people this amazing charity helps every day. If you can spare a few sheckles (or even just a heckle us), we’d be hugely grateful — and our legs might forgive us later.
