Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

On Sunday 1 August, I will be taking part in the London Landmark Half Marathon with The Victoria Foundation (TVF) team and raising money for Crossroads Care Richmond and Kingston upon Thames, which TVF is very proud to support. 

Crossroads Care Richmond and Kingston upon Thames is a network partner of Carers Trust, the UK's leading provider of support for Carers and the people they care for. 

A registered charity, Crossroads Care has provided bespoke, high quality home and community projects and respite services in Richmond and Kingston for over 33 years. They care for babies, children, young people, adults and the elderly with all health and social care conditions and needs, including specialist' complex care and support services. 

I am aiming to raise £300 which will help to fund much needed therapies for Carers, who have been so greatly affected by the pandemic, to help support their well-being during their respite hours.

As a Care Support Worker and the Holistic Therapist at Crossroads I see first hand the level of care, love and support that our carers give to their loved ones 24/7. There is inevitably also a huge amount of stress and pressure that comes with being a full time caregiver, so respite and time out is vital for them. Holistic therapies can be of huge benefit to help support their own well-being and provide a space for some much needed rest and relaxation. 

Thank you so much for your support - every donation will help to make a difference.
