About my charity : Blythe House, High Peak Hospicecare Blythe House, High Peak Hospicecare
Situated in Chapel-en-le-Frith, Derbyshire, Blythe House Hospice is High Peak's only day-care hospice. The principal activity of the hospice is the provision of specialist palliative care services and support for people with cancer and other life-threatening illnesses and the extension of support to their families. The services we provide are free to the user but not cost free. We receive less than one-third of our essential running costs from the local Primary Care Trust and we aim to raise £6000 from charitable donations each week. A £2.50 donation will pay for lunch for one of our clients, £10 will provide art therapy equipment, £20 will pay for a complementary therapy session, £30 means someone will receive a much needed counselling session. Every donation makes a difference. Thank you for your support.

Hi and Thank you for visiting my fundraising page.

I have now completed the Edinburgh Marathon, in approx. 4hrs 38mins, the first 18 miles was into a head wind which was very hard work, then for the last 8 miles the sun came out which presented it's own problems. On the whole it was a very enjoyable day.

Update: Firstly a BIG thank you to all those people who have already sponsored me and to those who have wished me well for the day.

I have now completed
I am running to raise money for Blythe House this is a local hospice which offers support for people with cancer and other life threatening illnesses and they also offer support for their families.
