It’s nearly that time of year again! I’m preparing to hit the dance floor for 9 hours straight to raise as much money as possible for the incredible teams at Trinity Hospice and Brian House.

​From the "YMCA" and "Saturday Night" to "5, 6, 7, 8," I’ll be powering through the classics to support two causes that mean the world to my family.

​Why I’m Dancing This Year

​This year’s event is deeply personal. I am dancing in loving memory of my mum, Susan. Mum was a passionate supporter of Brian House, and when she needed them most, it was Trinity Hospice that granted her final wish: to be at home, surrounded by her family.

​A Celebration of Emily

​I’m also dancing for my amazing stepdaughter, Emily, who regularly uses Brian House.

​Emily is a HIE (Hypoxic-Ischemic Encephalopathy) warrior. As a baby, she was critically ill and given less than 24 hours to live. Today, she is a headstrong, happy, 14-year-old diva! While HIE affects every aspect of Emily’s life, we strive to give her the most fun-filled life possible. We are constantly in awe of the strength she shows, and Brian House is a huge part of that. It gives her the chance to be a teenager, try new activities, and simply enjoy life. #HeardOfHIE
