Story
When we signed up for The Wall, it was to be the perfect event to honour Dad's memory. 70 miles from Carlisle to Newcastle, a mile for every year of Dad's life, the last mile for the milestone birthday he never reached. Mum was going to be waiting at the finish line, for us to fall into her arms. Then the pandemic hit, the event was deferred and Mum received her own Lung Cancer diagnosis!! Lightning had struck twice and our already broken hearts were shattered. Now we find ourselves participating in the event in both their memories 💔💔 Our journey to the start, never mind the finish line, will be an emotional one, but together, side by side, we will succeed. Jinty & Heather xx
