Story

Some of you may remember I raised money for this charity back in 2017.  I am very grateful for what you helped me raise back then.  At that time my mum hadn’t long had a diagnosis of bladder cancer and the charity was just getting off its feet.


My mum has since had surgery to remove her bladder, and the cancer!    She will soon be staying in Hope House as part of her own journey of recuperation.  I am raising funds again for Hope House for this reason.

So what am I doing to raise the funds?  Well back in 2017 it was my first ever road race, a 5k.  I never thought I’d ever be doing what I am about to do!!  On 21st May I am registered for a 12hr endurance running event with the aim of completing at least marathon distance 26.2 miles (hopefully well under the 12hrs too!!!)
