We are a group of friends taking on the National Three Peaks Challenge in memory of Ethan's mum. Mary was diagnosed with Stage 4 Stomach Cancer in mid-January of this year and after a brave battle against a horrifically aggressive cancer, she peacefully passed away just three months later in mid-April. The group surprised Ethan by turning up at his door (socially distancing of course) to announce the plan of taking part in the challenge in memory of his mum. At a time when he was grieving this was something that really cheered him up and gave him a purpose and opportunity to do his mum proud.
Fundraising pageThe Guts UK charity was set up to increase the levels of research into diseases of the gut, liver and pancreas so no one suffers in silence or alone. Their vision is of a world where digestive disorders are better understood, better treated and everyone who lives with one gets the support they need. We have chosen this charity as it is the one Mary picked before she passed away as one she would like to support.
