A breast cancer survivor will be hiking through the Himalayan foothills to raise money for Action Cancer two years after beating the disease.

Dolores Palmer (54) was given the all-clear in October 2022 after a mastectomy. Now she is determined to complete the Dalai Lama Trek in November in an event organised by Action Cancer.
