Story
The Prospect Hospice in Wiltshire provides a huge range of care and support to not only individuals but their families and friends too.
In 2015 I will be doing 12 challenges, one a month to raise money for this amazing charity, who gave an outstanding level of care to our much loved friend Becky and fantastic support to the family during an extremely difficult time. Becky passed away peacefully in the Hospice in October 2014.
Prior to Becky's illness she had done a huge amount of fundraising for this charity, which was close to her heart and she left a fundraising legacy for us all to continue. Please donate what you can to this really great cause. (Read more below)
