Jordan and I have embarked on a brilliant challenge to raise £5000 for Weston Hospicare by running the London Marathon in April next year.

This has been on our bucket list for a long time and with 5 months to go, it’s all starting to get very real!

As most of you may know, both Jordan and I have a connection with Weston Hospice. After having family and friends receive their amazing care, and the honour of occasionally working alongside some of the amazing professionals there, we are grateful for their incredible work and feel passionately about supporting them by fundraising however we can.

Jordan has previously raised over £5000 for the organisation completing the Weston half marathon and I was able to raise £3500 last year by swimming the English Channel.

We would love to keep the momentum going with this new challenge which will be by far the hardest we have attempted and we feel privileged to be representing such a wonderful team.

Please, please, please, help us reach our total to allow Weston Hospicare to continue run their incredibly important service.

Receiving an end-of-life diagnosis can be difficult, not just for the patient but also for their loved ones. At Weston Hospicecare, our team of palliative care experts is dedicated to working together to provide specialist support. Our social, emotional, psychological, spiritual and physical care helps guide people through one of the most difficult experiences they will ever face. With only 20% of our funding coming from the NHS, we have to raise £4 million each year to fund our care - something that's only made possible by our community.
