Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

As most of you will know, I'm not the first person to ask for sponsership but this year I've decided that its time to make an effort and raise a bit of cash for an important local charity. The Mendip challenge  is a 30 mile hike begining in Wells and continueing across the top of the Mendips to Uphill taking in the full length of the route, plodding through puddles, climbing over contours and heaving over hurdles and is a bit of a killer so I'm reliably informed! This event is organised to raise funds for Weston Hospicecare which is where all your sponsership money will go.

Weston Hospicecare cares for anyone who has a life-threatening illness and its catchment area goes as far north as Yatton and to the east as far as Cheddar and Draycott and as far south as Burnham on Sea and Wedmore. The hospice provides palliative care for people living with cancer and other life threatening illnesses and cares for around 600 people and their families each year.They provide  a high standard of skilled medical and nursing care, both in the Hospice and at home. All this care and support is provided free of charge costing £3million over the next year and being raised through charitable donations like yours. 

Please donate generously as one in three of you will be effected by Cancer in your lifetime and may need to turn to Weston Hospicecare for their help and support.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please dig deep and donate now.
