Story
On Saturday, 13th September 2026, I’ll be taking on the Edinburgh Kiltwalk, walking 21 miles alongside some incredible friends who stood by me during one of the toughest times of my life.
In June 2020 at the age of 37, I was diagnosed with womb cancer — news that completely changed my world. Just a couple of months later, in August 2020, I underwent a full hysterectomy, followed by years of regular check-ups to ensure the cancer hadn’t returned.
This August, I will reach a milestone I once only hoped for — six years cancer-free. 💛
I’m doing this walk not only to celebrate that milestone, but to give back to a charity that means so much to me: Peaches Womb Cancer Trust. Their work supports women facing womb cancer and raises awareness about a disease that often goes under-recognised.
This journey hasn’t been one I’ve taken alone. The friends walking beside me, along with others helped carry me through the darkest days, and it means the world to now share this challenge — and this moment — with them.
Every step of those 21 miles is for the people who supported me, the women currently fighting, and those still to be diagnosed.
If you’re able to donate, share, or support in any way, it would mean more than I can put into words.
Thank you for helping me turn something so difficult into something hopeful. 💛
