This year I’m running Manchester and Leeds marathons. They are only 2 weeks apart so it will be a very tough challenge. I’m running to raise vital funds for The Kirkwood who are desperate to raise money to help care for as many people as possible as it costs over £11 million a year to run this vital service.

A £10 donation could fund a virtual wellbeing session for a patient living with heart failure.

A donation of £50 could pay for specialist counselling support for a patient and their family.

£100 could provide vital support to a patient in their own home from one of The Kirkwood Nurses.

The Kirkwood are here to support anyone affected by a life limiting illness, every step of the way. Right now, over 3,000 people in Kirklees are living with an illness from which they will not recover. Your support means we’re here for them.
