Today's the day! I'm continuing to raise money for Cancer Research UK throughout March in recognition of all they've done to help my family this past year. As always, any donations or shares would be greatly appreciated. I would love to get to £400!

Hi everyone! Personal post incoming - I'm participating in the 100 Skips a Day Challenge for Cancer Research UK in March. In January 2023, my wonderful mum was diagnosed with cancer. As she continues her treatment, I'm taking on my own challenge...
