Story
My beautiful friend Emma had signed up to do a trek for Coppa Feel in 2024 but she died before she got chance to take part in the trek. In honour of the support she showed Coppa Feel, I want to fundraise for them.
Emma would have turned 50 this year - to remember her and keep the memories of her alive, I plan to do 50 walks for Emma in 2025. I would like to do these with Emma's friends and family.
There are no rules, other than each walk is in memory of Emma - I want people to laugh, cry, gossip, chatter, think, remember and share their memories of Emma and do what she was an expert at - chatting! I miss her chatter so much.
If you want to do a walk, let me know - it might be a walk round the garden, round the block or up a mountain - I'm up for anything!
Thank you :)
The picture is of one of many walks I did with Emma (and a few other lovelies). This one was a snowy day in December a few years ago.
CoppaFeel! are the UK’s only youth focused breast cancer awareness charity, and we’re on a mission to get every 18-24 year old checking their chest.
We educate people on the signs and symptoms of breast cancer and encourage them to check their chests regularly, so that if they notice something unusual they are empowered to contact their GP and advocate for themselves. We do this because when diagnosed early and accurately, breast cancer treatments are more effective and survival rates are higher. Early detection truly can save lives.
