As some of you know, I teach a young boy who suffers with numerous medical conditions, which makes day to day life challenging. He is a tough, incredible young man and to show my support I am joining a few other adults in our class and planning to walk 160km during June 2021.

We are aiming to raise £1000 to support the amazing work that Shooting Stars do for children in their care. Our child benefits from a lot of help from the Shooting Stars. He uses their facilities to allow him much needed respite and time to just enjoy himself. 

This is a wonderful cause, please give as much as you can! 

I will post regularly to show how many km I have walked.

At Shooting Star Childrens Hospices we provide vital care for babies, children and young people, with a life-limiting condition and offer invaluable support to their whole family. As well as respite care and lots of activities for the children to get involved with, we are there when the time comes to ensure that end of life care is sensitively provided, to give the family a chance to say goodbye in their own way.We also provide an extensive range of counselling, therapies and support groups for the whole family. Whether its a creative therapy for the child, counselling for a parent or a support group for a sibling or grandparent our dedicated therapies team look after everyone.We offer physiotherapy, occupational therapy advice and support and complementary therapy for much-needed opportunity for parents to switch off from the stresses of life and take a moment to relax.
