Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

With a team of 8 other colleagues, I will be taking the challenge of climbing Helvellyn on the 18th June. 

The walk will consist of 10 miles, take between 6-8 hours, and raise money for the incredible local charity St John's Hospice. 

Whilst many of you may know I did complete the three peaks challenge back in 2015 for the same charity, I must admit, this challenge seems more daunting for many reasons. Other than six years of youth advantage, my fitness really is not what it used to be. 

However, with the website Morecambe and More, I aimed to provide positivity and good to the area, and I couldn't think of a better way to do that than supporting a local charity that provides so much for the local area. 

St John's Hospice provides free palliative care to patients with life-shortening illnesses across the whole of North Lancashire, South Lakes and some of North Yorkshire. Whilst we all hope that we never need their services, the chances are someone in our life may, so they need all the support we can give them.

It costs over £5.1 million a year to run the hospice, with only around a third of this amount provided by government funding. This is why events like this are vital to ensuring they can continue their work. 

I have pledged to raise a total of £150 so if you could help me reach my target for this incredible charity by donating to the page, or if you would prefer, feel free to contact me to arrange a cash donation. All money raised will be donated to the charity and every penny counts.

Thank you for reading, and wish me luck!
