Story

We (along with Pearly!) are taking on the Sunrise Walk Richmond. The walk will take me past famous sights including the River Thames, Hampton Court and the beautiful and wildlife packed Bushy and Richmond Parks. By signing up to take part, we will be helping to ensure that Shooting Star Childrens Hospices can continue to provide vital care and support to hundreds of local families and children who need them more than ever.

Sydnee is our youngest daughter and she died in February 2021. She was 12. She had endured 3 years of cancer treatments. She died at home & after SSCH arranged for her to go to The Willow room. Syd was their for five days after she died and it gave all her family and friends the opportunity to say goodbye.
