Story

Thanks for visiting my page. Here's a little background information about why I'm raising money for Dorothy House. 

My girlfriend's sister, Tasha, sadly lost her battle with skin cancer in November 2019 at the age of 23 and Dorothy House were amazing throughout. Initially this was through Tasha visiting as a day-patient doing crafting etc. Then later she was admitted as an in-patient for a number of weeks, with Dorothy House being very accommodating of her needs and family visits. As Tasha deteriorated, she wanted to be at home with her family and Dorothy House were very supportive of making this happen and then providing excellent hospice at home care. This included multiple visits from the nurses each day and organising specialist equipment to make Tasha comfortable throughout.

All of this, no doubt, comes at a considerable cost to this relatively small charity, so I hope to do my bit to help and show Team Tash's appreciation for the wonderful care she received.

In terms of the Bath Half Marathon, it is my second successive year of running it. Last year I did it in 1:39:59, and I'm challenging myself to try and do it in under 1:35:00 this year. Please give me the extra motivation with your generosity, big or small. My fundraising target is £850 as I managed to raise £845 last year, which I'm hoping to better.
