Story

When Chester had his stroke and was seriously ill and confined to a long period of hospitalisation Ronald McDonald House Charities were there to provide us with a safe, welcoming, free 'home away from home'. It was so close to the Evelina it meant we could spend more time at his bedside without having to travel to and from London each day. This meant we had the energy to fully focus on his recovery and rehabilitation as well as allowing Lucy and I a place to take turns to go and shower and grab some sleep whilst knowing we could be back at his bedside in a flash. RMHC are unsung hero's who provide clean, safe and excellently located accommodation for free meaning parents have one less thing to worry about and can concentrate their efforts on dealing with the trauma of having a sick child. To help build even more Houses across the UK and continues the amazing work currently being done by those already there, I will be riding with #TeamRMHCUK at the Brighton Marathon weekend 2022. Please help Ronald McDonald House Charities to keep more families with their sick children by donating and supporting. Thank you heaps!
