Having signed up two years ago, this much awaited run that was postponed due to the Pandemic has somewhat crept up on me to the point that I am rather regretting my eager decision to fundraise in this way. 

I am putting my heart and soul into training and just need those knees to hold up. Two charities so very close to my heart will keep me going.

If you can find it in you to sponsor me, that is what makes those long training runs worth the pain.

Thank you so much in advance!

SO WHY ARE WE PUTTING OURSELVES THOUGH THIS?

Our darling boy Skye was diagnosed with a brain tumour at the age of four. Those close to him were constantly in awe of his strength of character and fortitude in fighting such a horrible disease. Skye was determined to “help other children like me get better” and he started to raise awareness and funds to help children suffering from brain tumours. Sadly Skye died from the side effects of his treatment just before his 6th birthday. Our souls died with him and life will NEVER be the same again. We miss him every day.

We are determined to carry on with his mission through ‘Blue Skye Thinking.’

We have been fortunate enough to have been scooped up by the H&D House 'family' and have benefited from their incredible bereavement support. The time feels right to extend our commitment to helping children with brain tumours by also supporting this special Charity which leads the way in hospice care.

All money raised will be split between these two Charities.

BLUE SKYE THINKING

Blue Skye Thinking supports research into the treatment of childhood brain tumours, striving to give all children diagnosed, a better chance of survival and improved quality of life during and post treatment.
