2020 Walking Event

I’m raising as much as I can to beat cancer - let's see how far we can get.
In memory of
Don Powell
Even in these crazy, horrible times, cancer is still here, still taking loved ones every day. So I’m raising money right now for Cancer Research UK. Even if Covid-19 makes the task difficult (getting to the Sahara), we will get this done, and my training has started (all but the warm weather acclimatisation). My natural northern complexion is between pasty white and translucent, so desert heat will be perhaps the biggest challenge. It would be great if you could donate to my page today and help bring forward the day when all cancers are cured. We're raising funds in advance, but this page will have occasional updates, pics, and of course news of the trek when it happens - I'll be the bright pink one doubled over, applying bandages to my toes. Thank you so much. In memory of Don, my Dad-in-law, who we lost a few years ago to cancer.

Cancer survival rates have doubled over the past 40 years. Consistent progress is being made but improvements to technology and ground-breaking work offer new opportunities to find different ways to prevent, diagnose and treat cancer and improve survival rates even further.
