Raising money for

Treetops Hospice

Charity Registration No. 519540

Treetops Hospice provides palliative care services for adults with life limiting illnesses such as multiple sclerosis, motor neurone disease, heart conditions and cancer. The hospice supports areas of Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire.

We need your help to build a New Day Care Centre.

Over the last four years demand for our services has more than doubled. To continue the excellent services we provide we need more space. The Treetops Hospice Ripple Appeal is a £1million appeal to raise funds for a much needed New Day Care Centre at Treetops. We are on our last £300,000 so truly every pound counts.

My story

Hello,

I may have mentioned (!) that I am taking part in Derby Sprint Triathalon on September 13th 2009. For those that know me, I have only recently taken to this sporting lark so a 400m swim, 18K bike ride, and 5K run all in one go is quite a challange for me!

Its been over 3 years since my mum very sadly died of cancer, and since then our family has tried to raise some money for Treetops hospice each year. Treetops provide care and support for patients and families of the terminally ill, and were a great help to our whole family. The last few years we have raised money through drinking and hogs roasts, so this time I thought I would do something a bit more healthy!

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page - any donation - no matter how small is appreciated - Thanks in advance!
