My story

As most of you will know, my Gran and namesake Louie (Louisa) Robertson, recently spent her last few months at St Margaret's Hospice in Clydebank.

The Hospice is a very special place that allowed Gran to have the care and attention she needed in a relaxed environment and meant that her end of life was comfortable, dignified and pain free. She was very happy there and was extremely well looked after - despite initial reservations that it would be too 'churchy' for her!

So, I am running the Fresh 'n' Lo 10K in Glasgow on the 6th September and have decide to raise a bit of money for St Margarets in the process. (For those of you who are not fully metric, 10K is about 6.2 miles.)

I'd be very grateful if you would consider sponsoring me - any amount however small or large - will be gratefully recieved and put to good use by the hospice to support other families who need their help.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please dig deep and donate now.
