Big Hike 2026

We're raising as much as we can to beat cancer

Story

This year, Amy and I are taking on The Big Hike in the Lake District, walking a full marathon through some of the most stunning (and toughest) terrain in the country. We’re doing this to raise money for cancer research, a cause that’s deeply personal to both of us. I’m walking in memory of my uncle, Sweepy. Amy is walking for her mum, who has bravely battled breast cancer. Cancer affects so many people — families, friends, loved ones — and it’s something that touches almost everyone in some way. That’s why this challenge means so much to us. The marathon will be tough, and the training already has its moments, but knowing why we’re doing it gives us strength with every step. If you’re able to support us, whether through a donation or simply by sharing our page, it would mean the world. Every bit of support helps fund vital research and brings hope to those facing cancer today and in the future. Thank you so much for reading, and for being part of something that truly matters.
