Why I'm walking 50 miles in May

I was diagnosed with breast cancer in February 2023 and just two years ago I was going through some of the worst of the treatment. I was often in a wheel chair, unable to walk. I'm still not back to full health but I am recovering with only a handful of less severe treatments left.

My diagnosis hit our family hard but it was family and friends who got me through, no one was there for us financially when I couldn't work or with emotional support or practical advice when we all feared the worst. Charity for Civil Servants offers that support and so much more for people going through similarly challenging times. Walking seemed like the perfect way to raise money for this worthy cause. 

Over the next month I'll be totalling 50 miles of walking, mainly in Beacon Hill coastal park near my house. I'll really need to push myself to get through it as walking can still be difficult and painful. Please donate if you can, you can come back and see my progress as I update my mileage! 

Please Support Me

I’m taking on the Mega Miles Challenge in support of the Charity for Civil Servants.

The Charity for Civil Servants supports current, former and retired civil servants when they face tough times.  From mental health struggles and financial assistance to relationship issues, getting through grief, and coping with disability, they’re here to help people stay strong, whatever life brings.

They’ve been there for civil servants for over 137 years, providing an umbrella of support when it’s needed most and so I'm fundraising to make sure they can be there for future generations too.
