Laura Abbotts is raising money for KEMP Hospice

Participants: Laura Abbotts, Richard Abbotts

Liverpool Triathlon · 27 June 2010

Based in the heart of the Wyre Forest, KEMP Hospice offers free specialist care and support to patients, families and carers who are dealing with life limiting illness and bereavement. We’re by their side in our day hospice, in their home or virtually, as they face some of their toughest times.

Story

 

Hello & thanks for visiting the Abbotts JustGiving page,

 

On June 27th Richard and Laura will both be taking part in the Liverpool Triathlon, (alongside our cousin and soon to be cousin - in -law and a few thousand randoms).  Over the past few months there have been fluctuating levels of swimming / cycling and running taking place in Liverpool, Birmingham and London, with healthy family rivalry helping to drive training!

However, in order to give a less competitive motivation to finish the course and make it through the final stages of training, we've decided that the event is a great opportunity to raise money for the Kemp Hospice in the West Midlands - hence the joint just giving page you're reading. 

The Kemp hospice cared for our Aunty Helen when she was dying from cancer and your money will help to ensure that other families can benefit from the support and medical expertise that they offered to our family - so please be generous!

If you'd like to find out more about the charity, then the website can be found at: http://www.kemphospice.org.uk/

 

THANK YOU from Richard & Laura.

We will update the page with the results, once the family pecking order has been established!
