The Willow Foundation gave us both a much needed break in 2008. We spent the weekend in London and got to see an England Test Match at Lords Cricket Ground. Pete was a massive cricket fan and never thought he would be able to go to Lords.

The Willow Foundation funded the entire weekend - transport, tickets, a lovely meal and spending money. There was no end to the generosity of this charity.

We had very special memories from this weekend that will last forever. This treat came at a time when we needed a real boost.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please dig deep and donate now so that other terminally ill young people can enjoy a special day out like we did.
