I'm taking on the Walk 80 Miles Challenge for Young Lives vs Cancer.

This Childhood Cancer Awareness Month, I'm taking on the Walk 80 Miles Challenge for Young Lives vs Cancer. I will be walking 80 miles in September to support children and young people with cancer. Join me in supporting a good cause, your contribution will make a big impact, whether you donate £5 or £500. Every little bit helps. Thank you for your support.

  • £26 could pay for an hour of support from a Young Lives vs Cancer social worker, so that children and young people with cancer, and their families, get the right care and support at the right time
  • £60 could pay for a night in a Young Lives vs Cancer Homes from Home, a free place for families to stay close to specialist hospitals when their child is going through treatment, keeping families together
Why Walk 80 Miles?
Young cancer patients face an 80 mile round trip, on average, to get treatment.  Not only is this physically and emotionally exhausting, it comes it a huge financial cost too. It costs £255 a month when treatment is at its most intense.  

Young Lives vs Cancer help families find the strength to face whatever cancer throws at them. But every day 12 more children and young people hear the devastating news they have cancer. Make a donation and show your support today.

Monday 9th Sep
A big thank you to everyone who has donated and supporting me. 

I appreciate to some, walking 80 miles in a month isn't a big challenge, but when you have a 6 month old who likes to play st 3am it makes things harder!!

However, I've just started week two and already 35 miles completed!! 

Let's Get Walking

Tuesday 27th Aug
With Sunday being the 1st of September it's time to step up a gear! 
Thank you to those who have supported us already.
We are raising awareness for all the brave children who have had to face this horrible disease in their short lives. If everyone could donate just 50p, it would add up. 

Boots, start walking.
