Story

Hi there!

Sorry to do this to you again but this will be my last bit of 'begging for sponsorship' this year and this really is the biggy!!!!!

I've had to do this retrospectively in one sense as on Friday 25 June (please ignore date shown on opening page/email) I walked 31 miles (still can't believe I did it!) over hills and dale ha ha starting at just gone half six in Bewdley and finishing at Malvern at ten to severn in the evening!!

The reason I did this mad mad thing??!! a personal quest (a bit of a brutal way to get fit after a hysterectamy some might say but hey its me) but more importantly it was to raise money for a fantastic cause! I could talk here of so many cases, so many sad stories of people who have had to make use of hospices such as the ones run by St Richards Hospice!! The sad fact is that we will all get to a stage in our lives whereby we will know someone affected by cancer and someone that sadly dies from a form of the disease so please please give what you can to this, I have suffered I'll tell you, I had aches and pains in places I didn't think I could, plasters strapping up blisters and a massage on my back in our lunch break so that I didn't suffer too much late on!!!

As well as this walk (& my previous one that raised money for Help the Heroes in Birmingham) I've done a five mile midnight walk for St Richards Hospice (last Saturday 19 June) and I will be doing the Worcester midnight walk on the 12 July (10 miles), again for St Richards Hospice so you will be sponsoring me for all 3 which in total is:

46 miles of walking for St Richards Hospice !!!!

so could you please please please pass this on to all your friends so that I can hit my target of £289 which would be just so fantastic !!!

and finally thank you for listening ....and for giving!!

(ps ...and the retrospective bit happened because every time I tried to set up my page I had trouble with the website, prob of my own making, but I persevered and here I am, but  apologies for the delay)
