March On Cancer.

On 29th July 2014, my auntie Maureen passed away due to being terminally ill with Cancer. That's why, this year, I decided to do the March On Cancer.

I knew it was going to be difficult as at three miles, it's the furthest I've walked since my accident, but I also felt like I needed to do it to honour her memory and pray that one day, a cure will be found that will stop people from suffering with this terrible illness.

There's not much to say about the march, but I felt like I needed to acknowledge it, so here are a few photos from the event.

The reason I haven't posted about this sooner is because I wanted to wait until I had got all of my sponsor money in so that I could include the grand total... Here it is...

I'm amazed! I reached £400 - the most I've ever raised for charity, and four times my target. Thank you to the following people for sponsoring me:
