Story

I am a team leader for Sue Ryder Hospice at Home. We are dedicated to providing end of life care to people in Cheltenham, Gloucester and Tewksbury and all the places in between. I am proud of our work and would like to be able to raise some funds to help us keep doing what we do best.

Last year I braved the Big Dip in a chicken suit when the water was 4 C and the air temp was 1 C. Who knows what ridiculous shenanigans I will get up to this year? I will increase the level of silliness in line with increasing donations...
