Keisha's BlessingVerified by JustGiving
RCN 1171290
Our daughter Keisha lost her battle with cancer at the age of only 17. Grief is personal but support can be shared. Keisha’s Blessing aims to be there for other bereaved parents and family members. Offering a free stay at The Vineyard with lovely restful seaviews. Shining a light towards the future.

Story

This year, I'll be completing 12 challenges to raise money for Keisha's Blessing, who provide support for bereaved parents and their close family.  They offer a free stay in a peaceful retreat in the quiet Brittany countryside. During their stay, they have the space and time for reflection, enabling them to gather strength to carry on and move forward.

I'll update this as I confirm my challenges, but so far this is what I'll be completing:

  1. Cold Water Swimming Championships: 26 January
  2. 10K Winter run: 4 February
  3. Climbing one of the more challenging routes up Snowdon: 2 March
  4. Swimathon (5k swim): 29 March
  5. Great Northern SwimRun (Lake Windmere): 8 June
  6. Selkie Henley Classic - night / dawn swim: 30 June
  7. SwimRun Tooting Bec: 3 July 
  8. Running half a marathon:  3 August
  9. Not drinking any alcohol for 28 days (including whole on holiday)
  10. Marathon run: 15 September 
  11. North Downs 50k walk: 28 September 
  12. Trekking two marathons in two days through the desert: 13 October
I’d be very grateful for any donation you can make.  And if you have any challenges to suggest - let me know!
