This May I'm joining people across Yorkshire who are coming together to raise money for vital research that will help save lives in Yorkshire.

My reasons for taking part in this challenge are personal and in memory of too many family and friends who have lost their battles with cancer over the years.  It’s also for the family members and friends who survived their fights and continue to do so (and long may they continue to 🤞🏻).

I like to walk and hike but to ensure I walk everyday will be the challenge for me but I will remember those I am doing this for each and everyday.

Every 17 minutes, someone in Yorkshire is told they have cancer. People are more likely to be diagnosed with cancer in Yorkshire than in most other parts of England and, tragically, too many people die.

This May, I would like to help change this, by taking part in We Walk for Yorkshire to raise money for Yorkshire Cancer Research. Thanks to supporters, the charity funds vital research and pioneers innovative new services for people with cancer.

Every step counts and every pound I am able to raise will help save lives in Yorkshire.
