Marie Curie Cambodia Trek 2019   

In Memory of Roger Wilkinson                                                                

Hello our names are Sandra and Caroline.

My husband Roger was diagnosed with motor neurone disease in 2016.

 The disease took hold and Roger lost the ability to walk, move his arms, use his hands and towards the end he lost the ability to speak.

 It was our choice for Roger to stay at home throughout his illness.

 Marie Curie made this possible by coming into our home and helping me to take care of Roger several nights a week and even made it possible for me to go and get my groceries. 

Both myself and Roger were so grateful for the help from Marie Curie we tried to help raise funds for them by selling daffodils from our home.

 Sadly Roger passed away in April 2018;  I cannot explain the grief I felt at losing my husband.

 Caroline was not only there as a member of the Marie Curie team, she helped me through the dark times ahead.

 We have become great friends and do fundraising events together. 

We have decided that we would like to challenge ourselves to raise money for Marie Curie who provide care and support for people living with a terminal illness, and their families in our local areas.

 Our goal is to raise a minimum of £7000 by fundraising events such as tombolas, car boots, and the Cambodia challenge which consists of up to 8 hours trekking per day and sleeping under the stars.

Please try and support us in any way you can, Follow the journey with us as we will keep our justgiving page up to date with progress throughout the challenge.
