Ursula Vs The Wall

Ursula Walker is raising money for Melanoma UK
In memory of Jackie

The Wall 2026 · 13 June 2026 · Start fundraising for this event

Melanoma UK is a registered charity established in 2012, focused on raising awareness of melanoma (a form of skin cancer) and supporting those affected by it. The charity works to increase prevention through education and provide support to those working in diagnosis, treatment and research.

Story

On the 13th June I am attempting my first (and only) ultramarathon, The Wall.

70 miles across the country from Carlisle to Newcastle on foot with 26 hours to complete it.

I have trained hard for this challenge and am going to give it my best shot; what would help keep me going is knowing I am raising money for charity….almost 30 years ago, my beautiful Mum Jackie battled a rare form of skin cancer and so I would like donations to go to Melanoma UK in her memory.

In my work as a MLD therapist I treat patients who have lymphoedema following surgery for melanoma so am aware of the impact this can have long term.

Any donations are gratefully received and I thank you in advance for your generosity and support
