Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I have decided to run my first ever Half marathon this April in memory of my mum. Eek!! I have only ever run 6 miles before, so a very hilly 13 miles is going to be very tough going! In fact I never thought I would ever want to do such a thing!

Our mum died 4 years ago today, 13th February, and we miss her like I could never describe. She was an absolutely incredible mother, friend and counsellor, and her fan club was enormous (really).

Mum volunteered as a bereavement counsellor for Cruse Sheffield in the last few years of her life. This job could not have fitted her more perfectly. 

Cruse are an invaluable charity who offer free counselling, support and advice to anyone who has experienced loss and bereavement. Only last year,  Cruse Sheffield featured in the newspaper asking for very much needed funds. 

I know first hand how invaluable bereavement counselling is, and this service is getting more and more oversubscribed as cuts elsewhere continue. 

Please donate as much or as little as you want, and wish me luck at completing this mission!

*Please note that although Cruse Sheffield are not subscribed to Justgiving, I have been assured that all funds raised will go to the Sheffield charity

Mum, I love you xxx
