My story

 

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.

Some of you may know that my Dad is very unwell.  He has untreatable Bowel, Liver and Lung cancer.  As you can imagine, Mum and Dad have been having a really tough time and Grove House hospice in St Albans has been a lifeline for them, providing fantastic emotional and practical support.  (Everything from providing handles to help him in and out of the shower to essential counselling and reiki)

I am going to be doing a 10 mile midnight walk (I appreciate that it's not a marathon or anything but it's not all that easy for a sofa-surfer like me!) to raise funds that will help to support this fantastic charity so that it can continue to help families through this terrifying experience.

I would be hugely grateful for any money that you can give to this charity which means so much to me.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Grove House 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.

So please sponsor me now!

Many thanks
