In a weeks time (31st Oct- 11 November) I am undertaking a challenge by trekking for a week along three sections of the Great Wall of China. After breaking my left leg, right arm and right foot in November 2022 I set myself several physical challenges to focus on recovery and doing a significant walk for the hospice was one of them!

As a result, I am hiking as part of group on behalf of St Michael's Hospice in Hereford - an amazing organisation that sits at the heart of our community and touches so many lives. The hospice does incredible work, providing care for those who are ill and also caring for their loved ones just as they did this year for two gorgeous friends who were taken far too soon. They, and others I have known who have spent time at St Michael’s Hospice , will be very much in my thoughts every step of the way.

My mission is to help raise funds for our hospice and any amount you can spare to help me will be so gratefully received. I am covering all of the trip costs myself so every penny raised will go to do great things (gift aid helps massively too!). Thank you.
