Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please dig deep and donate now.


As some of you know I am jumping on my bike  to raise money for The Rosemary Foundation. I plan to ride from John O' Groats (Scotland) to Land's End (Cornwall) which is approximately 900 miles, this would usually take 10-14 days to complete, I will do it in 7 days starting on the 3rd July and finishing on the 10th July (hopefully) which averages at 128 miles a day, give or take a few.

All donations are welcome but if you feel you can help in any way be it with advice or equipment or sponsoring then please contact me - Jon.saunders@novusleisure.com


Here is a little about The Rosemary Foundation - www.rosemary-foundation.org.uk/

Our service is provided by a team of qualified and experienced specialist nurses, counsellors and care assistants, supported by providers of clerical, financial and administrative services.  To keep indirect costs as low as possible, staff work from their own homes, meeting regularly to discuss individual cases.  The Board of Trustees and the Management Committee (with responsibility for day to day operations) also meet regularly.

 

Patients who are referred to us are assessed by one of our nurses, who will visit the patient and their family, and also contact other healthcare professionals involved, particularly the GP and District Nurse, to assess the type and degree of care required and how this may best be provided. A care plan is drawn up with the patient and care arranged, with one named carer appointed to take overall responsibility in each case. There is no charge for this care.

 Anyone may refer a patient to us, but normally it will not be possible to take on the care of any patient without the full agreement of their GP.    

As part of our services for patients we are able to offer complementary therapies. 


WISH ME LUCK!!!
