Caroline Geraerts, is a breast cancer survivor, diagnosed and operated on in 2017, and has always enjoyed a challenge.
Caroline Gerearts has a real drive and desire to fundraise for a variety of charities that are close to her.
She runs her own bespoke entertainment services agency, StarTurn Entertainment, which provides planning, management and the provision of artists and attractions. This is as well as working full time for an online makeup company, who provide makeup and inspiration for mature women.
In the year she turns 60 she wants to walk to both the South and North Poles!
When she became single in her forties she let nothing stop her. She first did a bungee jump and a skydive. She then abseiled down Battersea Power Station dressed as catwoman. Caroline Gerearts has cycled from London to Brighton, run a half marathon and rowed the Thames which is 25 miles long. She’s slept rough and trekked in vertiginous and far away places!
She has a real love for trekking and this passion has taken her to many different places including the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu in Peru, the Himalayas Everest Base Camp and North Africa’s highest mountain Toubkal.
In April 2017 Caroline got diagnosed with breast cancer, despite this she climbed Toubkal in South Western Morocco in May 2017. In June 2017 she was operated in and, in her own words, “It’s a life changer!”.
