RBS Charity Football Tournament · 13 April 2008

We support the growing number of people in and around Milton Keynes affected by a life-limiting illness. We give our patients and their loved ones specialist, personalised care - free of charge. Only 13.8% of our costs are met by ongoing NHS funding, so we’re dependent on your support. Thank you.

Story

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page. Please dig deep and sponsor me online.

Willen Hospice is a charity close to many peoples hearts.

Its a life changing hospice that helps people cope with nightmares in life in the most comfortable way possible.

I lost my dad last year to cancer and he spent his last few weeks in Willen and was treated like every suffering person should be. He felt at home, he felt wanted, the staff were tremendous and they made his last few weeks as comfortable as anyone possibly could of. Not only do they support their patients, they support family and friends who are finding it hard to cope.

Being only 18, losing my dad so young wasnt the easiest period of my life. I want to help Willen raise as much funds as possible so that we can make people more aware of the dreaded C word which will enable Willen to keep providing the high level service in which they already do, and hopefully, help other patients last days, weeks, months be as pleasant as possible.

I am holding a charity football tournament for staff of The Royal Bank of Scotland who will be paying to take part, which will hopefully contribute greatly to funds we desperately want to raise.

I will not be adding the offline donations yet, I want to make this as large as possible without the cash donations so await the total in the coming months.

The tournament will take place on Sunday July 27th at the Powerleague location in MK. I am deffinately looking forward to this and I know many others are too.

I'd like to thank RBS who have donated £200 towards the cost of the pitches, without that funding, I would never of been able to hold the event to raise the money I desperately want to see against Willen's name.

I know quite a few of you have been coming back to check to see how the fund raising is going so I thought id better let you know that if you have noticed, the target amount keeps changing. This is because I want to set myself small targets to keep reaching.

 In the end I hope to raise around £3k in total which I know will make a massive difference to Willen Hospice.

If you want to get in touch with me with regards to the tournament then please do, also, if you wish to talk to me about what I have been through and ways I have coped then please do get in touch. I'm no expert, but I have the life experience to help you. JSTIMPS_820@BTINTERNET.COM 

Thanks very much for your time, I hope you can spare some money to help raise the profile and much needed funds for Willen hospice.

Many thanks for your support.
