Story

Our beloved Caitlyn lost her courageous battle with Angiosarcoma 8 months after her diagnosis. She was 8 years old. She was the bravest soul. No child should have to go through what she went through. We miss her every day. 

Shooting Star Chase in Hampton Court supported us with palliative care for Caitlyn, where we spent hours in the sensory room, music room & swimming pool. They have supported her bereaved sister Megan too. Megan has benefitted from her music therapy sessions as well as the siblings outings. The staff are extremely dedicated to the children in their care who all have life limiting illnesses or conditions.

We are privileged to raise money for such an important cause.

Thank you to Helen Hammond, Lee-Anne Scott & Scott & Ruth Berry for joining Warren & myself in running in Caitlyn's memory. Lindsay Hunter we will miss you this year but look forward to you joining us in 2018.
