Story

LOROS is a charity whose aim is to enhance the quality of life of adult patients with cancer, progressive neurological conditions and end-stage organ failure for whom curative treatment is no longer possible. Patients are treated at the Hospice and in the community based upon clinical need, regardless of background and the ability to pay.

At the LOROS Ball in November last year I was persuaded to 'auction' myself to skydive. At the time the date seemed far enough away to not be worrying - now it is just 1 week away and I'm hoping people might offer me some sponsorship if for no other reason than to calm my nerves!

Thank you - LOROS is a truly amazing cause.
