Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

For those that don’t know me, I’m Fiona, married to Ian. We are both doctors. I’m a GP at Astwood Bank, Ian is a consultant gastroenterologist. 

In March 2024 I will be trekking in Jordan as part of a group raising money for St Richard’s Hospice.

As a GP in Worcestershire for 17 years I have seen first hand the help that they offer to patients and families in Worcestershire at an incredibly difficult time, when having treatment for cancer, or other progressive illnesses, or when end of life care is needed. But, they rely on charitable donations to do this essential work as less than 25% of their funding comes from the NHS. So they need people to promote the charity. 

I saw this trek pop up on my Facebook feed, and thought I could do that. It is an opportunity to get fitter, visit somewhere beautiful, meet new people and most importantly raise funds an awareness for St Richard’s.

And so here I am, and my husband is signed up too. We are paying for our own trip, so every penny donated will go to St Richard’s, but we really do hope you will consider supporting us. Thank you.
