Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Over 5 years ago we received the devastating news that Bronwen, my mother in law, had been diagnosed with cancer and that it was terminal. A year later she got moved into St Rocco’s Hospice. The hospice provided excellent care for Bronwen but also gave comfort to the family visiting. I often went to visit and would spend the whole day there. We were always made to feel welcome and it felt like being at home which is just how Bronwen wanted it. 

At Rocco’s made the whole experience that little bit easier and was still there supporting us after she had passed. We want this fantastic service to continue to provide for others now and in the future. Which is why public donations mean so much. 

I’ve run marathons and an ultra but this will be my most challenging event yet. 

Bring on the dancing shoes, glitter…and…fake tan!!!
