Little update, we’re nearly halfway through our Strictly Dance 💃🏻 training, and I’m loving it!! It’s surprisingly hot 🥵 work, and I’m halfway to my target . Thank you 😊 very much for those who have donated  and if you’re thinking of donating please do to support the hospice . My dance 🕺🏻 partner Matt is great , leading me through tricky steps to make sure we get round the dance floor!  I will keep you updated on our progress and hopefully photos and videos 💃🏻🕺🏻

I have stage 4 cancer, i this brought thinking about hospices into sharp focus. I now attend Bury hospice regularly for blood tests as part of the Christie closer to home services. This helps me enormously to continue to make the most and appreciate my life , taking out so much potential stress and anxiety. Making the most of life, for me includes Dancing 💃🏻!! So  the possibility to dance and learn for my love of strictly and raise money for the amazing  hospice  was an irresistible challenge . I hope you will support me as much as you are able to raise the money to complete this challenge, and possibly even win the Glitterball !! Below are some facts about the cost of running a hospice and where this money will go.
