Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I have been fundraising for East Cheshire Hospice for a while now, and when I saw the Trek Sahara adverts I jumped at the chance to take part! Most people I tell think I'm bonkers for doing it, but I can't wait, I'm really excited! It will be a huge challenge, so hopefully I can raise lots of money for the hospice.

East Cheshire Hospice has supported a number of people close to me over the years, so I am keen to support them as much as I can. I will be doing a number of fundraising events in the lead up to Trek Sahara, including the Wilmslow Half Marathon, the Virtual London Marathon, Born Survivor and the Manchester Marathon.

Thank you for taking the time to visit my page and read this, all donations mean so much to me and the hospice!
