Caroline lost her battle against cancer on the 15th of July 2010. Although Caroline fought with amazing courage, often in great pain, the effect of two operations and the relentless progress of the cancer finally took it's toll. She was cared for with great compassion by the Duchess of Kent Hospice in Reading in the final weeks of her life and nothing was ever too much trouble for the dedicated team.

Our son Benjamin, who is 7 years old, wants to raise money for the the hospice so that other people who are suffering, can be cared for with the same love and tenderness.

He has decided to hold a swimming event, in which he will swim at least 4 lengths of the pool (he's only 7, so that's quite a distance).

Please would you help him to raise funds by making a generous donation.
