So i have decided to enter the ring on the 2nd December 2017 and take part in the Vantage Charity Boxing Challenge. This fantastic event is put on, not only to provide entertainment but most importantly raise funds for Julia's House.
Now im sure many of you are aware of what Julias House is but as a summary, Julia's House is a children's hospice based in Dorset/Hampshire that work day and night to provide support to families with children that have life limiting or life threatening illnesses.
As a team taking part i hope we can pull together a fantastic amount that will, no doubt go a long way for those at Julia's House, please take a moment to read the below:
Just £60 can pay for two hours of precious respite for an exhausted parent. Below is a quote from one of the mum's to give you an example of how much this respite means to the families supported by Julia's House.
“Sessions at the hospice are a wonderful opportunity for Katherine to spend some time away from her family and to socialise with children that have similar limitations. She enjoys the one on one attention and has made some good friends. From our point of view, it is wonderful for us to leave Katherine in a safe and loving environment. It gives us the time to take Katherine's brother Michael out to do something that he really likes, like visit The Tank Museum. He really enjoys having his mum and dad to himself; it's just so important to him. I don't think you realise how vital it is for siblings to have time like that, until you are in this situation. We feel so lucky to have such a super service local to us.”
I ask that you donate as little or as much as you can for such an amazing cause!
Thank you so much in advance, it is greatly appreciated not only by me, but those who will benefit from your kind donation.
Thank you!
Tom
