We empower & support older Island residents to live well independently.

Story

I would like to help raise awareness and funds for Age UK Isle of Wight. On Saturday 5th June 2021, I will take on a 100 metre descent down the side of Portsmouth's iconic landmark Spinnaker Tower!

I have also set myself a Running Goal -
to Run from Freshwater Bay to the Tennyson Monument 10 times.
The total distance is about 30 miles, with total ascent about 1400 m.
I aim to space out the runs, with rest days in between, and complete the goal within a 3-week period.

Age UK IOW is dedicated to making sure no-one spends later life feeling alone, and works to make sure older people aren't forgotten or left to struggle. Whatever is raised here will benefit vulnerable older people.

I started volunteering for Age UK in 2015, driving people to their hospital appointments, and helping some to fill in their “Blue Badge” and “Attendance Allowance” forms.

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. Please donate if you can.
