My story

Thank you for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I am embarking upon a challenge, to cycle every street in my Ipswich Constituency, to raise funds for the EACH Treehouse Appeal. The challenge begins on 31 October and over a period of 4 weekends, I hope to cover approximately 250 miles.

EACH looks after children and families facing the most difficult decisions and moments, that any of us will ever know. Anyone who visits their current hospice, will not just be struck by the love and care they show, but by how they can work out of such a constrained space - so small that it means they cannot serve all those who need it.

The Treehouse will give EACH the capacity to help all the families who need their care.

I want to add my help, to everything that has been done to make the Treehouse a reality, by people from across Ipswich & Suffolk, who have already shown remarkable generosity. We are already halfway to reaching the target of £3 million; with your help, we can get a bit closer to realising that happy goal.

We provide care and support for life-threatened children and their families across East Anglia and Essex - in their own homes, in the community or at one of our hospices in Ipswich, Milton and Quidenham. This year we need to raise almost £6 million from public donations to deliver our services.
