WALK 100 MILES IN OCTOBER FOR BREAST CANCER NOW
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. So many of my friends and family have been or are affected by breast cancer . As many of you know, in 2024 I was diagnosed with breast cancer which had already metastasised to my lungs .
I am walking 100 miles over the 31 days of October 💗
During those 31 days, breast cancer will take almost 1,000 lives in the UK. They are mums and daughters, sisters and friends .
Someone loved. Someone lost.
Right now, research, treatment, support and hope mean more to me and my family than I could ever properly put into words.
I'm walking for the women going through treatment now.
For the women who have been through it.
For the families standing beside them.
And for the incredible people researching better treatments and, hopefully one day, cures.
I am fortunate to live in an amazing place and this challenge will encourage me to walk significantly more than I usually do , enjoy the beautiful views , breathe in the fresh air , move my aching muscles and take lots of photos of our island along the way ! I will have some mainland scans and appointments during the month so I will walk some new routes and discover different places along the way 😍
Breast Cancer Now has a vision that by 2050, everyone diagnosed with breast cancer will live and live well.
Every pound raised helps fund their life-saving research and life-changing support, something | now understand the importance of more than I ever did .
