My Story
Thank you for taking the time to visit my fundraising page. I am undertaking a solo walk of the Wales Coast Path, roughly 870 miles (1,400 Km) from Chester to Chepstow. I first learned about the path when walking a short section while on holiday, and was inspired by the fact that it is the first dedicated coast path in the world to cover the entire length of a country's coastline. I am taking on this challenge primarily for personal reasons, to reflect on my journey to date and contemplate the next phase of my career post full-time employment. However, if I can also use this as an opportunity to raise funds for Cancer Research UK that would be amazing. Unfortunately, cancer still touches the lives of too many people and numerous family and friends have battled the disease in its various forms. I am fundraising directly through Cancer Research UK so that the charity will not have to pay platform fees, so a larger proportion of the money raised will go directly to its amazing research. Donate to my page today and help bring forward the day when all cancers are cured. Many thanks for your kind generosity.
