Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page!

I am fundraising for Wigan and Leigh Hospice in memory of my sister, Louise Jones.

Louise was first diagnosed with a brain tumour in 2004; since then, she has had five craniotomies in 2004, 2006, 2016, 2018 and 2022. From first being diagnosed, she fought with bravery, courage and resilience. On the 16th May 2022, Louise passed away peacefully surrounded by her loving family in Wigan and Leigh Hospice.

In memory of my sister, alongside my nephew Jacob Jones, we are taking part in a skydive in Lancaster to raise much needed funds so Wigan and Leigh Hospice can provide compassionate and exceptional palliative and end of life care for the people who need it most.

Please spare whatever you can for an amazing cause close to our hearts.

Skydive Details - Black Knights Skydiving Centre - 24th June 2023, 12:00pm - 15,000ft Jump!
