Kilimanjaro Climb for Marie Curie.

Climbing Kilimanjaro for Marie Curie

Frances Anne Ridge and Sharon Currie want to show that their friends and family are not alone in their fight against cancer. By taking on the small task of climbing Mount Kilimanjaro…..small compared to facing cancer……they’re hoping to raise a whole lot of much needed money for Marie Curie Cancer Care; an organisation who makes life a whole lot easier for cancer sufferers and their families.

‘Everyone at some point in their life has been touched by cancer and we’re no different.’

‘We’ve both watched family members and friends fight cancer, some have sadly lost their battles, others have won and some are still giving their all in fighting the disease.’

Yesterday I kept myself busy by packing, nervously un-packing to make sure I had everything and then re-packing….and repeating the process again and again. I think I’ve […]

One Week To Go Well it was back to The Cobbler on Saturday and it was our last walk together before we head off to Kilimanjaro. I can’t believe we’ve spent the last 10 months on various long walks and have never run out of things to talk about the entire way – typical women I […]

Frances Anne Ridge: Preparing to climb Kilimanjaro
