Journey to the centre of Mars (the RUBY RED planet) Help us to say Thankyou
Fundraising for Society of Tissue Viability
Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
I am joining the Tissue Viability Society's Journey to the centre of Mars to raise money to help set up a support network for Carers in both home care and care homes.
As part of our 40th Ruby Anniversary activities (strongly hampered by
Covid-19),we aim to raise money to develop and deliver a programme of training and education to say a huge thank you to all our CARERS across the UK. Please help us to help them!
During the lockdown, you will all have been amazed by the sacrifices many carers have made to provide much-needed care to the most vulnerable people in our society. The elderly, the homeless and those with learning disabilities are the most likely to have been affected by lockdown and in addition to the risk to their health from COVID 19 they have also had to endure the loss of contact with family and friends. Carers have had to fill that gap and are often the ones least able to access training and education.
I am challenging myself to contribute 90 miles (200,000 steps) to the
Journey to the Centre of Mars. Those of you who know me know that walking is not my thing, I am slow and walk with a stick, during the lockdown, I have managed less than 1000 steps a day. So doing an additional 200,000 steps will be a great challenge. I will keep you updated as to my walking target on Twitter and Facebook. Please give generously it is a great cause.
