Story

In June this year, my Mum, Jenny Dakin, passed away. It’s horrible watching your mum die from cancer, but the wonderful staff, nurses and carers from St Nicholas Hospice were absolutely wonderful. Their care, compassion and good humour, allowed us to spend valuable time with Mum, whilst they did the looking after. 

So, to help raise money for a wonderful place and to remember Mum, I’ve signed up for the St Nicholas Hospice 10k around Bury St Edmunds.

If you’re able to buy me the equivalent of a pint as way of support, well that would be amazing.

Thank you!
