Story

Every day of your life matters from the first to the last.We believe that everyone living with a terminal illness should be able to get the most from the time they have left, however hard that may sometimes feel.We'll be here for you and your family when you may feel like no-one else is, to help you cope when you don't know how.Marie Curie Nurses care for you in your home, when you need them most, day or night. Our hospices are at the heart of communities around the UK. And our trained volunteers and advisers are here for you with practical information and support when you don't know what to do next or just need to talk. We'll be by your side with care and support every step of the way, bringing light in the darkest hours.

My wonderful mum lost her brave battle against cancer on the 8th of August. She fought so hard right up to the end. Mum needed the specialist care of the hospice in the last week of her life and the care she received was amazing. Every one of the staff there took the time to care not just for mum but for our whole family, even the dog. The staff really are Earth Angels. 

My wish would be that no-one would need this care but the hospice and the staff is an invaluable resource at a time when the individual and the family are experiencing such a difficult time.  

Pam was an amazing wife, mum, sister, auntie, colleague and friend, she has had a lasting impact on the lives of so many and for that reason we want to give back to this amazing charity in memory of my beautiful mum. 

On the 25th of September we will be completing this walk, mum would want us all to be smiling and have our lipstick on! 

Thank you x
