MICA Travels are a group of family and friends that are dedicated to raise awareness of Bile duct cancer and sepsis, two illnesses that claim 1000’s of lives each year and are barely known about. I lost my wife; our sons lost their mother and many others lost a dear friend. We as group will be doing a series of endurance activities to raise money for these charities as a lasting memorial to Carol, so that our sudden loss is not in vain.

The Lake District (and Keswick in particular) hold a very dear place in Mum and ...

Speaking with Neil and Jamie, we came up with an idea and they went to work putting it into practice.

Around 2 we...
