Remember September 2026

In loving memory of

Jenny

28/04/1962 - 24/05/2026

Forever in our hearts

Support my challenge to fight for a world without pancreatic cancer

This September, I'm walking 84km for the 84 people who die from pancreatic cancer every 3 days in the UK.

Pancreatic cancer is the deadliest common cancer in the UK.

Right now, 31 people are diagnosed with pancreatic cancer every day in the UK.

So this September, I'm challenging myself to get up, get moving and walk 84km remember those we've lost, and stand with those affected by pancreatic cancer.

Please make a donation to support me, and together...

We will remember them. We will honour them. We will fight for them.

My Tribute Post

I walk in honour of my beautiful Mam who passed away from pancreatic cancer this May. Mam faced her diagnosis with such dignity and grace but the heartbreak is felt by all her family and friends. If I can raise awareness and help fund research into new treatments or advances in pancreatic cancer as a tribute I hope to play a small part in helping other families walking this path x

My achievements

My updates

Target hit and still going…

Target surpassed with the help of my friends. The support of everyone continues to blow me away. Thank you 💜 x

Good for the soul

12.75km today and great to see the amazing support we are experiencing throughout this challenge! Being out in the fresh air is good for the soul and our mission is the best motivator to get up and moving. Thank you to all x

Clocking up the steps…

Day 4 and £1000k target has been surpassed which is absolutely amazing and spurring me on to push beyond the km target too. Let’s see what I can do. Thinking of you all the way Mam x

Here we go!

Day one… complete. Love that one of my daughters and my Dad joined me after work. Fuelled by cake so no benefit for the hips but good for the soul and in aid of a fantastic cause x

You guys are awesome!

Just wanted to say a huge thank you for all your generous donations so far. I am humbled by your kindness and grateful of your support! 💕 x

Warming up!

Been warming up the legs this week whilst in North Devon for a staycation and what a beautiful location to boost the step count. Thank you so much for all the donations so far. You guys are amazing! 😘 x

I am committed!

I made a promise to myself that I would join this fundraiser in honour of my beautiful Mam. I hope to bring a few friends and family along for the ride on some of my walks and will share the journey with you all x
