    Story

    Dave and Jackie Wilson were blessed with two beautiful twin daughters, Lydia and Naomi. They were inseparable as they grew from babies to toddlers. Unfortunately Lydia developed a rare form of cancer, she never complained and always had a cheeky grin on her face!
    She captured the hearts of many people with her infectious laugh.

    Lydia was a very special girl who suffered a lot of pain, she spent a big proportion of her last 3 years in Alderhey hospital on both the neurosurgical and oncology wards, and then her final days at Claire House hospice. On the 13th of July 2009, the fight became too much for her, and she passed away peacefully in the arms of Mummy and Daddy.
    In memory of Lydia her parents, family and friends have raised many thousands of pounds for a number of charities. More recently they have bought Lydia's lodge set in a beautiful peaceful countryside setting, custom built for families with terminally ill or disabled children to enjoy a holiday and build some lasting memories. All monies raised will go towards the upkeep of this holiday home in her memory.

      Training has been going well, we have been wading waist deep through sheep poop and getting snagged on barbed wire. Just 5 sleeps left and I am quite looking forward to the challenge. For every single person that has donated and helped us reach towards our target 🎯the team would like to thank you. We have been overwhelmed by your support and it looks like we will achieve our target ahead of the event. The donations you have made will help put a smile on the face of a very ill child and their family. Thank you 😊
