Story

In September, I will be walking 100km along the Thames Path as part of the Thames Path Ultra Challenge 2024, hoping to complete this in 24hrs straight. This will be a real challenge for me but I'm hoping with training and self-belief I can make it!

I am raising money for HILS, an organisation close to my heart. HILS work hard to support vulnerable people across the local area offering a range of services to help keep people healthy, happy, and independent. Their input allowed my Grandma, who is in her 90s, to stay living in her own home by providing meals on wheels and friendly chats. During my career as a Learning Disability Dietitian, this amazing charity also provided support to many of my patients, enabling them to live their best lives.

HILS were so humbled when I reached out asking to fundraise for them, we are so grateful for any donations you are able to make. Thank you for your kindness.
