Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Several members of my family and many friends have been affected by cancer over the years and, once again, someone close to me is battling cancer. (EDIT in April: It is with great sadness that my dearest, beloved Netti has sadly passed - my motivation to do this in her honour could not be greater - we miss you every single day). Raising money is one way for me to feel that I am doing something, no matter how small, to beat this disease. Research is the only ways to help us do this.

I will be trekking through Iceland in winter to raise money for Cancer Research. Those of you who know me well know how much I hate cold and winter!! Still, the hope of seeing Northern Lights along the way would be a big boost! Having not engaged in any charity treks for a few years, I will need to try to regain some fitness which becomes harder as the years pass but my motivation is high.

I am grateful for any support for this charity and please note that 100% of your donations go directly to Cancer Research as I am completely self-funded. Thank you in advance for all and any help!
