Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
As anyone who knows me will agree i am far more at home shopping for shoes and eating chocolate! However having been set the challenge of running the London Marathon and raising money for HCPT- The Pilgrimage Trust i now find myself running for the first time in my life and sometimes even enjoying it!
HCPT is a charity that i have been involved in for 15 years and something i am very proud to be a part of and has given me many happy memories but this is only able to happen beacuse of the hard work and dedication of the volunteers and supporters of the trust. To be able to help others have the same experience i have had would be a fantastic achievement so please sponsor me and support this great charity.
HCPT is a charity which organises Pilgrimage holidays to Lourdes in France for people of all ages and abilities and can cost £710 per person. A week in Lourdes with an HCPT Group at Easter is a week filled with fun and laughter - and can also provide a well earned week of respite for carers back home! The volunteer helpers not only provide care and friendship through the week in Lourdes, but actively raise the money through the year to cover all the costs of taking the children to Lourdes. This is how the Groups can offer a free week's holiday, with full care, at no cost to the children.There are two Groups at Hosanna House each week from the end of April till the end of October. Each Group has an average of 43 people in the Group, There is no formal distinction between those who are there to help and those who need help, every member of a Hosanna House Group has an equal role to play - and the same form to complete and same fare to pay. Some Groups arrange fundraising to help cover the costs where help is required. Hosanna House is HCPTs home in Lourdes and facilities here are among the best in the area
