I’m raising funds to support the incredible nurses on the cancer ward at Burton Hospital, who care for patients undergoing chemotherapy every single day. This cause is deeply personal to me.

My mum has been diagnosed with stage 4 cancer, which means terminal cancer. Over recent weeks, I’ve spent a lot of time in the chemotherapy ward alongside her, and during that time I’ve seen first-hand the compassion, strength and kindness shown by the nurses who work there.

They care for patients and families during some of the most difficult moments of their lives — always with patience, warmth and a smile. Their support has had a huge impact on my mum, my family, and on me personally, just as it does for countless others every day.

Through this JustGiving page, I’m raising funds to create care packages for the nurses on the Burton Hospital cancer ward as a small token of appreciation for everything they do. These will include simple comfort items such as hand creams, treats and thank-you gifts, to show how valued and appreciated they truly are.

Any remaining funds raised will be donated to Macmillan Cancer Support and Cancer Research UK, to help support patients, families and ongoing cancer research.

There is absolutely no pressure to donate — your support, kind words, or simply sharing this page means more than I can say. Thank you for helping me give something back to those who give so much every single day.
