We fund care to help people through a terminal illness

Story

I work as a nurse at my local hospice, The Martlets,  which is a charity and always needs funds to keep delivering excellent end of life care. As nurses we have a good idea about what makes a difference and we are keen to help raise money so we can keep on keeping on...

I completed the trek in the Grand Canyon in March 2016 and raised over £6,000 for the Hospice. This has  inspired me to take on an even tougher challenge to raise more money.  Having survived the sheer ladders in the Havasu canyon, I will attempt the via ferrata in the Pyrenees on the Freedom Trail which was the route used to escape from Nazi occupied France.

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
