Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit our family JustGiving page.

The National Three Peaks Challenge was a huge success in 2024…

And our Annual Christmas Ball Fundraiser continues!

2024 was a sell out with lots of new faces supporting a great cause and now we are getting in full for December 2025 Christmas celebrations!

Our ongoing support for Keech stems from the phenomenal care they provided for James Dennis Green’s end of life in April 2013

Then more recently in April 2024 Keech supported us through the sudden loss of Eileen Elsie Green with palliative care referrals and plans to move her to the Hospice, however sadly, Eileen didn’t make it there as her battle was over very quickly.

Over the years Keech have had a huge impact in the lives of many of our friends too - a local Hospice that will always need continued fundraising support to ensure they will be there in the future, for those who need them most

****************************************************

Our family choose to continue supporting the wonderful Staff at Keech who cared for our wonderful Dad and Grandad James Dennis Green 11 years ago.

After a short, aggressive battle with Pancreatic and Liver Cancer we lost our beloved Head of our family in just 5 weeks, he fell asleep on 22nd April 2013.

Fast forward 11 years, the same month, the same diagnosis and, sadly, an even shorter fight for our bright, vibrant Mum and Nanny, Eileen Elsie Green, who passed away after a 2 week battle on 24th April 2024.

The palliative care team assessed and supported us with Eileen’s referral to Keech Hospice too but sadly she fell asleep before she could get there…

The coincidence is unbelievable - but we know Jim was calling for his Eileen… “C’mon Eileen”
