Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page!
It's time for me to take on another ridiculous challenge....
Every 45 minutes a man dies from prostate cancer. Therefore, my brain has decided I should run every 45 minutes over a 24hour period. I will run a minimum of a mile each time - which may not sound a lot, but that means a minimum of 32 miles over the 24 hours (the most I will have run in a day!).
I have decided to raise money for Dorothy House because of the support they have been providing my dad (who has prostate cancer), and my mum.
People often think of hospices as only being there for end of life care - but they do so much more. They helped to get my dad's pain under control last year when it was unbearable, and since then he has attended coffee mornings and physio sessions (in person and zoom!). They also provide support to relatives - including quick access to counselling sessions.
These are all vital services for people suffering with terminal conditions, and their families.
They rely on fundraising and donations to keep providing these services.
Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails.
