A RESIDENT is prepared to undertake the challenge of a lifetime, just a few years after recovering from life-threatening cancer.

Mrs Jeannine Green, 53, of Winton Road, Farnborough, was given just a slim chance of survival when she was diagnosed with breast cancer in 1992.

But, just nine years later, she has recovered fully and is now trying to raise money for a 100km walk across the Sahara desert in Morocco.

The walk has been organised by Macmillan Cancer Relief to raise funds to care for cancer patients.

But Jeannine needs to raise £1,900 to join the walk.

She is now asking for people to help her reach her target.

If you want to help Jeannine, then call her on 01689 854176.
