Story

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

I am hoping to raise money for the Katie Piper Foundation this year following the wonderful care I have experienced at Sheffield's Northern General Burns Unit. The donations made towards the Katie Piper Foundation help fund burns treatment and ensure that settings such as the burns unit at Sheffield can be created. I feel truly lucky that I was able to experience such wonderful care thanks to previous donations and staying in a nicer hospital environment definitely helped me in dealing with my burns injury.

Working with friends (and anyone else I can convince to join me) I shall be covering a range of events and activities this year to raise money. Please donate what you can and help encourage people to support a brilliant charity. Water over 44 degrees centigrade can cause a scald and the average cost of a day bed in a burns facility to treat a minor burn is £750. The difference that the Katie Piper Foundation makes to burns facilities and burns management really is amazing.

As more events are confirmed I shall add them below with the people taking part. This year events will be much harder for me due to the nature of my burns injury and getting myself back in them game fitness wise! Thank you very much for your support and donations.
