Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
As you all know, whilst I was hiking on Bowfell in the Lake District in August 2021 I rolled my ankle which resulted in badly breaking it in 3 places. I experienced first hand the amazing work that LAMRT do to help people in trouble. That afternoon 15 team members gave up 4.5 hours of their time to safely evacuate me off the mountain. They deal with over 100 incidents per year, they are a self-funding dedicated team of 'professional volunteers' coming from all walks of life, united in their love of mountains and their wish to help their fellow mountaineers.
As a ‘THANK YOU’ for the amazing care I received that day, I want to raise some vital funds so that they can continue to help others as you never know when you might need their assistance.
After deferring for the last two years I’m attempting to run/walk this years Great North Run on the 10th September.
One specialist said I’d never run again but you know me I’ll do everything to prove them wrong! It’s been a long journey back to my current fitness level but I’m determined and I’ll still continue to push myself.
I’m selling 500 raffle tickets at £2 per ticket, there are some great prizes. Thank you for helping me to support LAMRT 💕
