After seeing the wonderful work Nightingale House carry out within our local community, I was delighted to be able to offer my support, when asked to take part in 'Strictly Nightingales'.

The event is based on the 'Strictly Come Dancing' TV program and includes company representatives teamed up with professionals, dancing to win the 'Strictly Nightingales' Trophy!

I have being partnered with Mario and our selected dance is the Quick Step. I have no previous dance training so will need all the practice I can get!

The hospice provides specialist palliative care services for those who are living with a diagnosis of a progressive and/or life-limiting illness. Their services are completely free-of-charge to patients and their families, and this year it will cost a staggering £4,900,513 to run the hospice - this equates to £13,389 per day.

I am extremely grateful for any donations, to help me achieve my personal target and hopefully exceed. Thank you xx
