Story

On Saturday 17th September 2022, I will be taking on the Great Hospital Hike in support of King's College Hospital Charity. 

I do this in memory of my fiancé Andy - a kinder and more generous person than you could hope to meet. I do this for all the staff at King College Hospital from the Nurse who held my hand and walked me round resus on what would be one of the worst nights of my life, to the organ donation team who were so patient and kind on what was definitely the worst night of my life. Plus the countless more nurses, social workers, doctors, and surgeons who were there every step of the way taking care of our lad, talking to him, caring for him, fighting for his life all while trying to keep me and his family informed and in many cases upright.

I do this because every day of my life I am striving to be more Andy ❤️
