Story
In memory of my Mum I am walking 'The Fen Rivers Way' which is approx. 50 mile walk from the outskirts of Cambridge to King's Lynn, over 3 days in April (with a 4th as a contingency).
Walks have always been a part of our family's life, and that included Mum, even if she needed the help of the wheelchair at times.And a few of you will remember our sponsored walks round Graham Water before and after Mum's heart & kidney transplant. The key difference being the first time Dad and I pushed a wheelchair round, the second time Mum walked it!
I am hoping people will sponsor me to complete the 50 miles for two causes. The first, that which was close to my Mum's heart, and whose support with her health was so important - Papworth Hospital Charity.
The second links to the fact, whilst Mum left us to be at peace with her Saviour, she would have wanted more than anything for us to keep living. And one of the biggest things that has kept me going is my passion for the RoadHOG bus. This is an ecumenical project in Boston by which we aim to reach out to our young people in our community.
So please think about sponsoring me. Thank you in advance.

5 years agoThank you all for your generosity and support. Apologises to the recent anonymous donor that I can't identify so thank personally. The total sponsorship and donations is now over £1100, a number I'd like to think Mum would be proud of. She was always much better at asking people than I am! Ask my Dad about sponsorship for his first counties ride back in the 1970s! It will all be a wonderful help to both Royal Papworth Hospital Charity, with so many patient needs at this critical time as they move sites, and to the RoadHOG youth bus.
