Thank you for visiting our fundraising page. Please dig deep and sponsor us on-line. This is our fourth year of giving Shirley the opportunity to defy her fate and make a splash in her home area. Last year, with your help, we raised way over 5,000 pounds, taking our total to some 20,000 pounds for cancer charities.
St Clare's Hospice is a fabulous, little, Geordie Institution, where the terminally ill are given unconditional caring. The people who work there are not hugely rewarded materially, but they are among the most spiritually rewarded on earth in that they give enormously to folks that are humiliated by nature's extremes and to their families that are mortified as helpless spectators. This is our preferred charity, but we are also doing a page for Cancer Research UK. If you would rather donate to this national rather than local charity, we will understand.
Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor us: St. Clare's Hospice will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.
So please sponsor us now!
Many thanks for your support.
Team Shirley
