Couple’s global jiving quest raises thousands for charity

Sometimes the most noble causes are sparked by innocent dares from friends.

British nationals Diane and Steve Gee, now Cyprus residents, started jiving simply to meet new people and shake up their island life. What began as a fun hobby turned into a global adventure: within one year, they danced in more than 60 locations worldwide, raising over £4,500 for charities including Cyprus’s Forget Me Not Alzheimer’s foundation, the UK’s Macmillan Cancer Support, honouring loved ones lost to both diseases.
