Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Those of you who know me , know that the Hospice holds a very special place in my heart.  I first became aware of the hospice 18 years ago when my mum was admitted. She was only a patient for 8 days, but we, as a family, were blown away by the love and care she received. But not only Mum, my brothers and I were also wrapped in the Hospice Hug!  Those 8 days provided us with time to make Happy memories with Mum, the highlight being, mum being able to attend my wedding reception , which thanks to the amazing staff we had in the sunflower centre. 

The Hospice gave us a little chink of happiness at an extremely sad time of our lives. And it was this Love and support that eventually led me to a change of career, and I am now 11 years on, actually working as a health care assistant at the Hospice. A job which I absolutely adore, and I thank my Mum every day for guiding me in this direction. 

So, having had so much help and support from the Hospice, I am always looking for ways to repay them, and what better way than to accept a challenge!  So here I am preparing to do a wingwalk, along with a few, also slightly deranged colleagues 😂 The Hospice relies on fundraising to fund the majority of its costs , only receiving a small % from the government. The pandemic has had a massive impact on the Hospice income due to cancelled fundraising events so we need to pull out all the stops and start generating income again. 

So please wish me good luck 🤞 and if you can help in any way to support our lovely East Cheshire Hospice, we will be forever grateful. None of us know if or when we may need it.

Take care of yourselves, lots of love, Jill xxx
