Story

On March 26th 2023 I will be off on the adventure of a lifetime trekking to Everest base camp.  This means two weeks away from my beautiful daughter Evie which is a decision  I haven’t taken lightly but the support that Reuben’s retreat have shown us over the last 7 years is insurmountable. 

I have felt extremely low at times in my life especially living with the fact that Evie has a short life expectancy it is something no parent should ever have to face.  Reuben’s retreat are the only charity that have truly been there for me through thick and thin.  They have pulled me out of the dark times and given me hope to keep going which I will be truly grateful for forever.  This is why I wanted to take up this challenge and give something back to them so they can keep providing this vital support to so many families.  Any amount you can give will be so gratefully received thank you from the bottom of my heart ❤️
