Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
On 10th September I will be taking part in a 34 mile cycle challenge along the Tarka Trail to raise money for Little Bridge House.
Children's Hospice South West provides care for life-limited children and their families. Little Bridge House is part of the Children's Hospice South West based in Fremington.The idea behind the hospices has always been to provide a home from home for everyone who stays with them, and that includes parents, and brothers and sisters too. So the 8 child-friendly bedrooms have minimal medical equipment and are decorated with favourite books, toys and DVDs for each child who stays with them. There is lovely accommodation for the rest of the family too.
The house has plenty of facilities including a main living area that forms the heart and soul of the house, cosy lounges, a messy play room for carefree creativity, a multi sensory room with lights, sounds and textures to soothe and calm, a soft play area for safe, trouble-free fun and a jacuzzi for relieving stiff joins and muscle spasm.
The teenagers also get their own special space where they can surf the net, play music and be themselves, whilst our games room is a place for chilling out and taking a few minutes to beat dad at pool. Outside, the Narnia sensory garden, (based on the magical story The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe by C.S.Lewis), provides a place to set the imagination free!

Childrens Hospice South West relies on 85% of the money it needs to survive a year being raised by fundraising.
