Alongside a group of my friends, I'm taking part in the Glasgow Kiltwalk on Sunday the 27th of April walking 23 miles to fundraise for Marie Curie which is a charity that is close to our hearts. Over the last few weeks, the charity has provided a great deal of support to Fran's family as her mum has transitioned from the Glasgow Beatson Hospital to be at home. The overnight nursing care have provided Fran's family with support and much needed evenings of respite. Marie Curie offer a number of services such as expert hospice care and support over the phone.

£17 could help fund a Support Line call or webchat, meaning someone in need can receive practical information and emotional support.

£23 could help fund an hour of expert care and emotional support for someone living with a terminal illness, in the comfort of their own home.

£120 could help fund heating in a hospice for a day.

£207 could help fund nine hours of overnight nursing care in someone's home.

Any donations for this amazing charity are greatly appreciated x
