Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

On the 1st & 2nd of June 2013, I along with 4 other intrepid explorers ( read Raving lunatics) are riding the coast to coast cycle route, starting in Whitehaven and ending in Tynemouth, a total of 140 Miles.  We are doing this without any vehicle support. I am hoping to raise as much money as a I can for the St Oswalds Hospice

St Oswald's provides specialist care for local adults, young people and children.

They are situated in Gosforth, Newcastle upon Tyne and our purpose-built facilities offer a range of flexible services to North East families.

Within their adult service, they offer a day hospice, lymphoedema service, an inpatient unit, complementary therapy service, consultant outpatient clinic and an outreach service.

Adults with life limiting conditions are referred to us for pain and symptom management and end of life care.  We care for patients with Cancer, as well as those with end stage neurological, cardiac and respiratory conditions. 

Within our Children's Service, we offer specialist short breaks to children and young people with life limiting conditions and their families.  Children from 0 - 18 can benefit from our care at St Oswald's.  We have also developed a service for young adults, aged 18-25, to enable us to continue to support children in our care who are reaching adulthood and perhaps those who have already left the service
