Story

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.

Ok, so this is me......... For those of you who have known me for years,  you may remember that I did a trek for Mencap about 10 years ago ( time flies!) and have decided to take on another fund raiser and my goal is the Inca Trek in Peru in October.

Why the cause - St Giles Hospice ? 

For those that we love and are no longer here, and the family, friends and memories they leave behind.

These people are in my thoughts and prayers, but I felt that I could do more, and hopefully with enough goodwill, hard work (and it is hard work!) I can raise enough to keep the hospice running for  few days - just from my fundraising !

I know my family are out of the area for St. Giles Hospice, however its my local hospice, and the work they do is fantastic for the local community. £250 provides 24 hours of dedicated specialist hospice at home care, £50 will provide a bereavement counselling session...... every single penny helps.


Why the trek ? Well , to be honest, I am feeling very very lucky right now and thankful for the health I have. I can go out walking , which I love and not suffer after. I can use the gym , swim, dive and still enjoy life to its fullest - others are not so fortunate. So while I can - I'm going to do it !
