I set myself the task of finding 50 photos I've taken since my diagnosis that reflected on my experiences of my travel in Britain.
After discovering I had breast cancer, I had to cancel a holiday I'd booked for the following summer to Turkey for my husband's 40th birthday celebration. This whole process was very traumatic. The holiday company refused to refund my £600 deposit or even give it to MacMillan their chosen charity of the year. After all of this I vowed never to travel with a big tour operator abroad again. I have not renewed my passport, but have instead tried to visit and experience the wealth that the UK has to offer. I have not regretted this one bit, and as a family we've had some wonderful experiences.
The photos I chose are not to reflect my family holidays as such but to capture some images that I feel reflect Britain. I've been lucky enough to go to both the paralympic games in 2012 and the commonwealth games last year.
I hope you enjoy my pictures as much as I did taking and choosing them!
