Story

Hi everyone,

As you know, we lost Laura to secondary breast cancer in April.  She was certainly larger than life, and fought so hard, but ultimately it was an unwinnable war.  So, having spent her last days in the Willen Hospice, I felt it was absolutely my duty to try to raise some money for them, so that I can say thankyou for the love, care and respect they showed Laura.  I have been training for a few weeks now with my friend Sam, who also loved Laura.  I am finding it tough, being an 'old bird', but I will give it my best shot.  What I need you to do is give me your faith, and your money!!  Please be as generous as you feel able.  Every penny helps, and I would dearly love to help the next person in Willen who needs help. Thank you.
