Story

Edit: Hi everyone firstly I want to say a massive thank you to everyone who's donated (so far ).

Also to all those who shared or are sharing my posts and just giving page 😊 it means alot .

I decided to keep the page going atleast until October or the end of October as this was last rimes cut-off for my 6 months of training and challenge and collection of any monies then being able to show a grand Total .

My plan going forward is to continue walking and try and keep the fundraising going hopefully there'll be a chance to do another Camino walk next year unsupported but less days .

So for now I'm still hoping for 2k to make it something special . Watch out for some other things I'm doing and follow the camino walk page.

Hello there! Thank you for visiting my JustGiving page. I am excited to share with you my upcoming personal trek, where I will be walking 300km of the Camino de Santiago in support of Leukaemia Care. This cause is very close to my heart, mainly due to me also having been diagnosed with chronic myloid leukaemia 3 years ago .

I had lots of worries and at the time of diagnosis I had to inform my children that I was about to go to Hospital. Not tomorrow or next week but then at that moment. A cold January evening at 10.30 pm shouting my kids downstairs wasn't the best thing a single dad had to do .

The money I recieved from luekeamia care helped me take my children on a short break and it would show them I was here and doing my best to stay fit and healthy for them .

There'll be my usual stories to tell and I'll post this page on my new Facebook page .

I hope people read some of it and understand that I'm trying to enhance my life and those with blood cancer and luekeamia just like me .
