Husband and wife in mammoth trek to raise vital funds for Macmillan Cancer Support
“I am a cancer survivor myself. I have been a partner to three people who have suffered from cancer.”
Husband and wife team Jill Greenhalgh and Bryan Walker have just completed the long-distance footpath the Cambrian Way raising over £1,000 for the charity MacMillan Cancer Support.
The couple completed 178.3 miles with 38,118 feet of ascent in 13 days. During the course of their trek - considered by some as one of the toughest trails in the UK - the couple encountered weather of every kind including driving rain, hail and strong winds ending their walk in a heatwave.

They were motivated by a strong desire to raise funds for MacMillian. Jill said: “I am a cancer survivor myself. I have been a partner to three people who have suffered from cancer. Going through the cancer journey takes a great toll on families. This is lessened by all the health professionals and charity workers whose dedication and commitment help at every stage.”
Jill and Bryan are both leaders for the Lancashire Dotcom Walkers group.
