I am fortunate to be a Senior Registered Nurse at Sue Ryder Thorpe Hall Hospice in Peterborough, and I am running both the Great North Run (September) and Great Eastern Run (October) for Sue Ryder (both are half marathons). Raising money for this charity will ensure that we can continue to offer specialist care for patients and be there when it matters to them and their families. I would like to thank you for any monies that you can donate to sponsor me, as every penny counts towards me reaching my target.

Sue Ryder provides expert care to people at the end of their lives whatever their health needs. We do this from our seven specialist hospices and in people’s homes.

Dying and grief are universal experiences, but too many people face them alone. We are a safe and reassuring hand you can reach for. From providing care and support for someone at the end of their life to helping someone manage their grief, we know there is no one size fits all when it comes to how we cope and the help we need.

We can make a positive difference during even the darkest of times. Whether in the last months, weeks or days of life, or living with grief, we help people live the best life they possibly can. We are there when it matters.
