Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

When diagnosed with terminal cancer my beloved Mum chose to face it and life head on...she trained extensively and qualified as a yoga teacher.  She supported me through pregnancies, birth and those difficult first years of motherhood.  She travelled India and through her own inner strength, positive outlook and healthy lifestyle choices bought herself precious quality time which she should not have had.  She left this life having met four grandchildren she was told she may never get to see - reassuringly calm and brave to the end.  Those who knew her speak of her serenity and radiant smile.  

We promised Mum we would help raise vital funds for St Michaels - the place where she spent her last weeks.  

I am lazy - I have vowed to make this year the year that I accept challenges and tasks.  'YES' has made a come-back in my vocabulary!  In the name of fun and fitness I shall be running, jumping, leaping, climbing, crawling, swinging (no, not that kind!!!) and getting extremely muddy by way of organised obstacle races.  Please note, I have no previous experience of running and little motivation or dedication to regular strenuous exercise.  

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 help me out - donations of any size will be make a vast difference.

Much love, Lou xx
