Why your Walk the Wight 2026 fundraising matters:

"I couldn't live the way that I do without Mountbatten's support"

 — Helen Barnes

Helen Barnes, 56, from Ryde, has been living with metastatic breast cancer since 2012. Her journey has been filled with challenges, but thanks to the care and support of Mountbatten Isle of Wight — made possible by fundraisers like you — Helen has found a way to live life to the fullest.

After the cancer spread to her bones, Helen faced the daunting task of learning to walk again. Weekly rehabilitation sessions with Mary, a Mountbatten physiotherapist, helped her go from using crutches to walking unaided in just eight months. “I couldn’t have got through it without Mary,” Helen says.

Mountbatten’s community nurses have also been by her side, helping to manage her pain during some of her darkest moments. “With Mountbatten’s nurses helping control my pain, I’ve still got the fight in me to live,” she shares.

Inspired by the support she’s received, Helen has volunteered at Walk the Wight, helped in the fundraising office, taken to the runway at a fundraising fashion show that raised over £5,500 for Mountbatten, and even co-founded a support group for people with secondary cancer.

Your fundraising through Walk the Wight helps ensure that people like Helen can continue to receive life-changing care and support. Every step you take makes a difference.
