I am always looking at ways to raise awareness during fostering fortnight as there is such a large shortage of foster parents. When I turned 60 I decided to climb Pen-Y-Fan, now I'm 65 I'm changing from climbing to flying and will be doing the fastest seated zip line in the world! 

One of my proudest supporters has always been my husband Tudor (as pictured) who sadly passed away from lung disease last year. Supporting me this year is my beloved son, Leighton, along with my fostering colleagues at FCA Cymru, April, Sharon and Lisa.  

In conjunction with fostering fortnight, I will also be raising money for Asthma + Lung UK, which you can read more about below; 

1 in 5 of us will develop a lung condition during our lifetime. There's a new diagnosis every minute. I'm fundraising for Asthma + Lung UK. They’re the only UK charity that fights for everyone’s right to breathe. Every pound I'm able to raise will take us a step closer to a world where everyone has healthy lungs. Just £22 allows one of Asthma + Lung UK’s nurses to answer a call on the Helpline, offering potentially lifesaving advice.

I'd be very grateful for any donations you could make!
