Ava-Jane's sponsored ride · 12 September 2012

Florence Nightingale Hospice Charity provides comprehensive and high-quality care for local people with life-limiting illnesses wherever and whenever they need it. We support their loved ones and carers through the toughest of times. We help families make the most of every day together.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

During the last six months, Florries (part of Florence Nightingale Hospice) have provided care for Ava-Jane for a few hours each week.  The wonderful Cathy comes to our house and provides amazing respite for me and cuddles for Ava-Jane.   In addition to that, she helps Ava-Jane go riding on her little pony, Shadow.

Now Ava-Jane's at school 2 days a week, I've told her "you must do some more fundraising"  so we're going to ride for over one mile this week (that's 6 times round Pipsie's woods).

Riding gives Ava-Jane so much pleasure.  She can't sit up on the floor unaided, let alone walk, but when she's on her pony she sits up straight and has a gigantic grin on her face..."look at me everyone".

We've got quite an ambitious target for this charity.  They give so many families an amazing level of support.   Please give a small amount and pass on to anyone else who follows Ava-Jane's story, to help us reach the target.
