Story

<p>I am fundraising for the fantastic charity <span style="color: #339966;"><strong>Momentum</strong></span> who support children with cancer and other long term illnesses and their families by doing a Tandem Skydive on 8th May; falling to earth from 10,000 feet at 120mph!&nbsp;</p> <p>Working as a Paediatric Nurse at Kingston Hospital in Surrey for 3 years, I have seen first hand this charity's fantastic work. They support patients and their families through diagnosis and their 2-3 year long treatment. It is difficult seeing patients and their families through their most vulnerable times but is wonderful hearing the stories of how Momentum has helped them through.&nbsp;</p> <p>The current project is to renovate the children's ward with a specialist Chemotherapy Room with comfortable chairs, toys and flashing walls. This will help young children overcome their fears of having difficult and painful procedures during their treatment.</p> <p>It is a fantastic charity, helping local children in their darkest hour.</p> <p>Please dig deep and support this fabulous charity.</p> <p>Photos of the jump to come!</p> <p>For more information, please click :</p> <p><span style="font-style: italic;"><a title="Momentum" href="http://www.moment-um.org">#mce_temp_url#</a></span></p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>PS.
