We Walk for Yorkshire 2024

This May I'm joining people across Yorkshire who are coming together to walk 31,000 miles to raise money for vital research which will help save lives in Yorkshire.

31,000 is the number of people who are diagnosed with cancer every year in Yorkshire.

People are more likely to be diagnosed with cancer in Yorkshire than in most other parts of England and, tragically, too many people die. Yorkshire Cancer Research exists to change this. With the help of people across the region, 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.

All in a good cause

Monday 13th May
Last week I clocked up a total of 45 miles but have to say that sounds a tad more than an average week. My (2nd) target of 100 miles isn't too far off so I'm thinking I'd better raise the bar a bit higher again. Yay, more miles to bank 😜...all in a good cause. Once I've posted on the socials, my target miles for Yorkshire Cancer for the month of May will be 160. As ever, I'm very grateful to all the lovely folk who have contributed so far. We've raised £94 so far together; there's a bit more to get to my £150 target. Please give what you can. It all counts for so much and helps to keep my focus and motivation going. Thank you ❤️

One week into the challenge

Wednesday 8th May
Well the first week has absolutely flown by! Unsurprisingly as we were visiting our family when the month kicked off. I was delighted to get a couple of walks in - it's not always easy to do; fortunately my family are used to my "adventures" and humour me in this regard. I have already increased my targets, both for mileage and to raise funds...I'm so very grateful to have already received over half of my sponsorship target. Thank you so much to everyone who has donated so far; you're wonderful. Much love 💕

Doing what comes naturally

Friday 3rd May
I'm not usually someone who sets up a fundraiser because I know there are so many causes being supported already. Cancer is a huge killer. No matter where you go, you will most likely know someone or be affected by it personally. I want to do something positive for people affected; what better place than my local area. And how? Well, by doing something which comes naturally by me. I love to be out and about, walking or running; this challenge will give me a focus as well as benefitting others. I set a low mileage initially but there is always the option to do more...yeah, knowing me, I'll be raising the bar higher pretty soon 😁
