Story

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page!

I have chosen to raise money for a hospice in Cambridge called Arthur Rank which runs solely on fund raising. To open its doors year after year it costs 1.2million pounds and I would love you to help me help them! 

I want to raise money for Arthur Rank in Memory of my boyfriends father Tony Westwood who passed away sept 2008. Without there support and hard work through out Tony's illness his family would have found it harder to cope.

- This is me on my first official run, the Sawston fun run which is 5 miles. I came in at 52.27mins! I am really happy with my time!

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Arthur Rank Hospice Charity gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.
