Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

The flight was rescheduled, twice, due to something falling off the plane!!! It's now booked for this Friday, 13th September (unlucky for some!).

I have challenged myself to do a Wing Walk to raise much needed funds for Lewis-Manning Hospice. I will be standing on the top of a bi plane while it flys at 130mph at between 500-700ft, doing 30° dives and if the conditions are right the plane will do a loop-the-loop! I hope they secure me on well.😕

Lewis-Manning is an independent adult Hospice offering free palliative nursing care to the people living with life-limiting illnesses in Poole, Bournemouth and many surrounding areas. We run a Day Hospice, Lympheodema and Better Breathing Clinics plus therapy groups. We also support patients' families, carers and those close to them.

Please help me raise as much as possible so that the wonderful nurses and therapists here at Lewis-Manning Hospice can continue to care for those that need them when it matters and help our patients to live well until end of life.

Thank you x
