I’m stepping out for Yorkshire Cancer Research this May. The challenge I have set myself is The Pennine Way: Middleton-in-Teesdale to Edale, the equivalent of 135 miles, and it's all to raise money for life-saving cancer research in Yorkshire.

My target 135 mi
My miles are saving lives. I’m stepping out this May to show my support for people affected by cancer in Yorkshire.

1 in 2 people will experience cancer in their lifetime. Yorkshire Cancer Research is an independent cancer charity funding pioneering research to prevent, diagnose and treat cancer in the region.
I’ve chosen my distance and will be walking to raise money for this vital cause. Last year I walked the northern section of the Pennine Way (Kirk Yetholm to Middleton-in-Teesdale) and raised over £2,000 and this year I plan to complete the second half. I shall be walking over 8 days completing between 15-22miles a day. The team here at HW Global will also be walking to support me.
Please support my efforts and help more people in Yorkshire survive cancer.
