EDIT#EDIT#EDIT
When I launched this page on 8th June I was hoping to raise £1150 which was 50 hours of care for someone in their own home.
As I type this I am currently at around 297 hours. so I have upped the ante and am going to try and reach 350 hours of care
I am blown away by the generosity of people. I am running the GNR to kick start my 50th birthday celebrations and what pre start this is!!
If you would like to make a donation to help me reach my target it will be much appreciated. Please also feel free to share my page to help raise awareness of the amazing work Marie Curie do.
£23 helps fund 1 hour of overnight nursing care in a patients home
£207 helps fund nine hours of overnight nursing care in a patients home.
Thanks Donna xx

On 8th September 2024 to kick start my 50th Birthday Celebrations (which by the way is not to Christmas😊). I will be doing The Great North Run; "The biggest half marathon in the world and I am both delighted and excited to be running it as part of team Marie Curie.
Obviously I will be covering all the expenses involved with taking part myself so every penny I raise will go to Marie Curie to help them provide vital care and support to people living with a terminal illness, and their families at the toughest time.
As part of Team Marie Curie you pledge to raise £380. However I am hoping to fund 50 hours of overnight nursing care in a patients home, which I know from personal experience is when that Marie Curie nurse walks through the door they bring a calmness into one of the biggest storms of your life and knowing your loved one is safe in their own surroundings is priceless.
If you would like to make a donation to help me reach my target it will be much appreciated. Please also feel free to share my page to help raise awareness of the amazing work Marie Curie do.
