We meet up with Giovanni Fletcher & the Coppafeel trekkers

Two weeks ago a little birdy told us that 100 incredible women were trekking an almighty 100km of the Pembrokeshire coast path in aid of raising money for the incredible CoppaFeel People! charity UK; a breast cancers awareness charity which exists to educate and remind every young person in the UK that checking their boobs isn’t only fun, but important!

The Coppatrekkers were led by influential celebrities Giovanna Fletcher, Sophie Piper, Amy Dowden, Kiri-Pritchard Mclean, (just to name a few) and were warmly welcomed into Solva Harbour by our team Luke, Laura and Thea.

To celebrate the final 10k of their challenge The Mount Milk joined us, we dusted off the MamGu Gazebo and dished up over 200 welsh cakes paired with Solva’s very own delicious ice cold Mount Milk to the hungry trekkers and their safety team. Luke (who sits behind screen 99% of the time), a very pregnant café manager Laura and Thea (you all know her!) were overwhelmed, taken back, and struck by the energy these incredible ladies had. Each with their own individual reasons for taking part, it was beyond a pleasure to be part of this special moment to stop and remember all those who have been affected by Cancer.

As the sun shone down on the harbour emotions ran high, Thea is not ashamed to admit she shed a tear, and they set off to complete the final stretch of their journey donned with walking sticks, blisters a plenty and the euphoria of their achievement.

“There’s a remarkable thing that happens when you put a bunch of strangers like this together in a new environment and set them a challenge” Say’s Giovanni Fletcher, winner of ITV’s I’m a celebrity, Get Me out of Here . “They walk so that one day another trekker will be walking with Coppa feel, saying how doing these things has saved their life”

From all of us here at MamGu Welshcakes, we say Da Iawn Pawb!
