Story

Following a long battle with mouth cancer my mum sadly passed away on June 21st 2020. She was an amazing mum and friend to me and my brother and sister. I want to do something to raise money for the amazing people at Severn Hospice in her memory as they made such a difference during the last few months of her life. My Dad and I decided that we would walk 874 miles (which is the distance from Lands End to John O Groats) over the course of 2021 in the hope of raising a minimum of £1000 to give to the Hospice to help them to keep giving the care that people so desperately need. Even the smallest amount will make such a difference, please give as generously as you are able to. Thank you so much, there is a description of Severn Hospice and their services below. 

Severn Hospice is with families from the moment they're referred to its care for as long as they need it, and it does this every day, all day for anyone in Shropshire, Telford & Wrekin and Mid Wales who needs that help.It does this for them for free, but it is not without cost and it can't happen without you.For every £1 you donate, they will spend 86p directly on care - and use the remaining 14p to make another £1.Last year, all those individual donations helped us provide £9.88 million of caring services.Thank you - you're amazing!
