Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

In April 2014 my aunt, Mandy Hills, passed away from cancer, having battled with Scleroderma and Reynauds disease  for many years. In her last weeks, Hospiscare helped us all a great deal. Their help and support allowed her to stay in her home far longer than would otherwise have been possible and they provided support to my cousin who otherwise I believe would not have been able to cope. 

When I met her community nurse and saw everything they were doing, from providing special cushions and meal replacement shakes to installing a stairlift, I decided I wanted to raise money to help others benefit in the same way.

Mandy always encouraged my running and so it seems only right that I should run to raise money. I have a place in the Brighton Marathon in 2015 and in the months leading up to it will be tackling my first 24hr endurance event, my first ultra marathon (50k/30miles) and Tough Guy. I would be so grateful for any sponsorship you can spare, no matter how small, to help support Hospiscare.

They need around £4.5 million a year to do this spend 88p out of every £1 donated on patient care. I’m hoping to raise at least £1,000 which could go towards some of the services below.
