Andy’s handstand walking length of the purple carpet at fierce gym

Andy Billington is raising money for Willen Hospice
In memory of Dad Tilly

Handstand walking challenge · 19 July 2025

We support the growing number of people in and around Milton Keynes affected by a life-limiting illness. We give our patients and their loved ones specialist, personalised care - free of charge. Only 13.8% of our costs are met by ongoing NHS funding, so we’re dependent on your support. Thank you.

Story

When dad died part of me died too this challenge is to give me that spark back a challenge to fight for to feel alive again

In memory of David Tilson

Dad Tilly

It has taken me well over a year to just be able to hold a handstand just for 30 seconds

Taken longer as didn’t have enough mobility in my shoulders to hold my body into a handstand

But now the challenge is to walk on my hands (handstand walking )

Willen hospice looked after my dad at his home and did a fantastic job for his last remaining days after bone cancer took him

Willen Hospice’s care touches thousands of local people every year.

We give comfort, ease pain and reduce anxiety for patients and their loved ones. Every pound given makes a difference - as it enables us to do more for more people across Milton Keynes when and where they need us. We receive less than a quarter of our funding from the NHS, which means the rest is donated or fundraised for by amazing local people. Which is why your support is so important and so appreciated – from everyone we help, thank you.
