On 21 May 2023, I'll be taking part in the Great West Run, in aid of Hospiscare. This means training hard, putting my best foot forward and taking steps to make a difference. Quite literally. Hospiscare is a local charity, caring for terminally ill patients and their families across Exeter, Mid and East Devon. Their teams of doctors and nurses offer specialist palliative care, to ensure that patients can make the most of the time they have left. Hospiscare are a vital part of the local healthcare system and as a charity, they rely on donations to keep their services going. I know the past couple of years have been hard for everyone, but I want to help ensure Hospiscare can continue to be there for the community now and in the future. My brother, Phil passed away in 2014 following a leukaemia diagnosis in 2013. He was a research scientist, working on cancer and particularly leukaemia trying to find ways of detecting the disease earlier. He left behind a wife, 2 beautiful girls and a devastated family. I first ran the GWR in 2014, in his memory and am ready to do it again, for the 4th time! Please help me make a difference by giving whatever you can. Every donation helps and your support would really mean a lot to me. Thank you!
