Story

My family were devastated at the loss of our amazing matriarch. She was full of life and baked like an angel!  She was loved by us all and when she was diagnosed with Kidney Cancer at 55, our world fell apart. She died in Overgate at 56 after a 9 month battle. We miss her terribly and I'll celebrate her life at the top of Kili in June 2024 xx

Overgate provides specialist care & loving support to people with a life limiting illness & their families. We need your support to ensure that our expert team are always here to care for people who are facing the end of their lives, helping them maintain their independence & dignity until the very end.

Adele and I are trekking Kilimanjaro in June 2024. Seven days of walking among some of the worlds most beautiful, yet challenging terrain and scenery. We aim to reach the summit at 5898m....I also turn 50 the night before we summit, so double celebrations!!! It'll then take us two days to come back down from Kilimanjaro's dizzying heights.

If you could spare some money to help me and my team mates reach the fundraising goal, not only would I be super-grateful, but you’ll be supporting the transformative work of Overgate Hospice.

If you’re a UK taxpayer, please remember to include Gift Aid, boosting your donation by 25% at no extra cost to you. This government-backed scheme helps UK charities to do even more great work.

Once you’ve entered your donation amount, to avoid the JustGiving platform fee, simply select ‘other’ and ‘£0’ (in the pale blue box)… unless you want to make a contribution, that is.

My employer will also donate up to £500 to match fund what ever I raise.....another amazing bonus!
