Story

My brother and I will be running the Oxford half marathon on the 17th October 2021 for Helen & Douglas House.

Some of you may know that they are an Oxford based charity who are extremely close to our hearts. 

You will have no idea of the care and support Helen & Douglas house provide until you are in the unfortunate position to need their help - just like we found out. They care for our daughter and our little family too. They have cared for our friends’ children before and as they have passed away. 

When you finally pluck up the courage to step through their door, the incredible help they provide is overwhelming. The different levels of support they provide are too long to go into here, but they are all-encompassing.

Without  the support they continually offer, our situation would be so much harder to deal with.

I best start training then!

Thanks for visiting my page!

******

Without public donations and support, Helen & Douglas House can't be there for local families going through the unimaginable heartbreak of caring for and losing a terminally ill child.

Helen & Douglas House supports terminally ill children and their families so that they don't have to face unimaginable heartbreak alone. To keep providing the care and love these families depend on, the hospice needs to find over £3.4 million a year.
