Pepper Sunrise Walk · 16 October 2011

The Pepper Foundation funds Hospice at Home care for children in Bucks and Herts. We believe that during this terribly frightening and difficult time, children and their families should be given the choice to be cared for at home, surrounded by the people and belongings they love.

Story

<p><span style="color: #840084;"><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Update 16.10.11</span></strong></span></p> <p><span style="color: #840084;"><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><br></span></strong></span></p> <p><span style="color: #840084;"><strong>Well, we did it!! </strong></span><br><span style="color: #840084;"><strong>We met Paul &amp; Ella and some of their friends about 7:30 this morning and set off just after 8am. It was freezing cold, frosty and misty when we set off, but the sun came out after a mile or so and once the mist had burned off it was a beautiful morning.</strong></span><br><span style="color: #840084;"><strong>It took us just under 2.5 hours to do the five miles. Paul and Ella were a little quicker, but I had to slow down on the hills! </strong></span><br><span style="color: #840084;"><strong>So, now we're back home, worn out and nursing our blisters, but feeling very pleased with ourselves. </strong></span><br><span style="color: #840084;"><strong>It's not too late to sponsor us, if you would still like to....</strong></span></p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><span style="color: #800080;"><strong>We have decided to join Paul &amp; Ella Barrow and their friends on the Pepper Sunrise Walk on 16.10.11 in memory of their beautiful daughter Saskia who sadly passed away last December.</strong></span></p> <p><span style="color: #800080;"><strong>The Pepper Foundation provide much needed professional and loving home care for seriously ill children throughout the Hertfordshire and Buckinghamshire area.&nbsp; They helped Saskia and her family greatly, providing invaluable care and support in their own home.</strong></span></p> <p><span style="color: #800080;"><strong>Please help us to raise &pound;250 for this small but important charity and enable them to help other families in similar situations.&nbsp; Help us to give something back!</strong></span></p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><span style="color: #800080;"><strong>UPDATE - Thanks to your amazing generosity, we've been able to raise our target to &pound;400.&nbsp; Please keep giving!&nbsp; :-)<br></strong></span></p> <p><span style="color: #800080;"><strong><br></strong></span></p> <p><span style="color: #800080;"><strong>Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure.
