Farleigh Hospice provides hospice care & support to people affected by life-limiting illnesses. With approximately 40% of our annual running costs funded by the local NHS, we rely on the goodwill of the local mid Essex community to contribute to the £21,271 it costs to provide our services each day.

Story

<p>Hi, and thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.</p> <p>Next April I am going to attempt to run 26 miles 385 yards&nbsp;in the London Marathon.&nbsp;I'm quite active but running is definitely my least favorite activity and many will think I am crazy in trying to undergo such a task, but I am doing it all in aid of my mum, who sadly lost her battle with breast cancer&nbsp;in January 2011, and if she remained as strong as she did, and many of you will know just how strong this was, then I know I can make my &ldquo;skinny, white, hairy feet&rdquo; run for the entire 27 miles.&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;I am also running for the Farleigh Hospice, a wonderful organisation that really helped my mum and my family through this tough time. They gave support before, during and after and without them my family and I don&rsquo;t know where we would have been.</p> <p class="MsoNormal">So please, sponsor my feet so that Farleigh Hospice can keep&nbsp;having such a positive impact on families like mine in the future.</p>
