Story

AT THE YOUNG AGE OF 12 HOLLY WAS DIAGNOSED WITH A RARE & AGGRESSIVE CHILDHOOD CANCER KNOWN AS RHABDOMYSOSAARCOMA

Holly was admitted in to hospital and for the the first 7 weeks she was unable to leave and whilst in hospital Holly turned 13.

Holly started to respond to the intensive chemotherapy and was battling hard with the support of her family and friends.

When Holly was able to return home her life became ALL about hospital appointments, scans, blood tests, chemotherapy treatments followed by radiotherapy treatments.

Momentum Children's Charity have helped Holly to go away for short breaks & outings during her many treatments, this made Holly feel normal, happy and helped her to start to enjoy herself.

After 7 months of intensive treatment Holly still has a small percentage of cancer. This will be treated with maintenance chemotherapy for the next 12 months.

As her Dad I wanted to do something to say thank you.

My walk of 65 miles will start at 10am on Thursday 21st March at The Anchor Pub in Stanwell Moor and will finish on Saturday 23rd March at Brighton Pier.

Day One’s Route: -

Stanwell Moor – Ashford – Sunbury – Walton – Great Bookham – West Humble – Dorking

I will be spending Thursday night at the Travelodge in Dorking.

Day Two’s into Day 3’s Route:

Dorking – North Holmwood – Beare Green – Horsham – Ashington – Then on to the A283 and then on to the A27 to Brighton Pier.

Everyone is welcome to join from Stanwell Moor or any of the other towns on route.

Thank you for support.
