On 5th July, I’ll be taking on a 26-mile charity walk along the stunning and challenging Jurassic Coast, in memory of my good friend of 30 years Jane Barrett. I had the pleasure of working with Jane in the 90’s and again in 2022 at StylaDog, after us travelling away to do our OCN level 3 diploma dog grooming course together. Jane was diagnosed with a brain tumour early 2022, and sadly passed away June 2024.

Jane was an incredible person who meant so much to so many. This walk is my way of honouring her life, her strength, and the love she gave, while supporting a cause that was close to our hearts.

Macmillan Cancer Support provides vital care, guidance, and comfort to people facing cancer, and their families. From expert nurses to emotional and financial support, they are there when people need it most.

Every step our team takes on this marathon-distance walk is for Jane, and for everyone facing the challenges of cancer.

If you’re able to donate, your support will go directly toward helping Macmillan continue their vital work. Whether it’s £1 or £50, every contribution makes a real difference.

Thank you so much for supporting me, and for helping me keep Jane’s memory alive in such a meaningful way.
