Thanks for being curious enough to visit my JustGiving page.

On the weekend of May 24th, my husband Tony and I will attempt to 'run' all 79 miles of the Wolds Way from Filey to Hull unsupported. I have tried (and failed) to run 80 miles three times in the last 12 months, and whilst I should probably just accept that this distance is beyond me, I am hoping that running for the benefit of Homestart families rather than my own ego, will provide enough motivation (pressure) for me to go the distance, even when my body decides enough is enough.

I have been a Homestart volunteer for nine years, and it has been a privilege to be welcomed into families homes, often when they are at their most vulnerable. The team at Homestart Hull are so dedicated to the families we support that I would love to be able to contribute more than just my time to ensure that we can always be there for the families that need us. Homestart Hull hosts a Teddy Bears Picnic and a summer outing for the families we support, but funding for this year's activities is proving difficult to secure. I would love to raise enough money for at least one of these events to go ahead. I know that money is tight for all of us, but even the smallest donation would mean the world. Thank you 😊
