Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

It has been a while since I've committed to some fundraising for Bolton Hospice so have decided to not do things by halves and Trek the Sahara! This is set to take place in February next year and I will be completing a desert trek with a team of others fundraising for this special cause. This involves battling scorching temperatures, sleeping under the stars in the open desert and battling vast and diverse landscape over 2 full days and 2 half days living the Berber way of life.

The Hospice is dear to me and my family as it is for many others but personally for me it not only gave my Grandma the best care in her final days it supported me and my family as well and I always promised I would do my best to help give back and support them in future fundraising.

Following a debate in Westminster in June, it was revealed that Bolton Hospice is currently running at a £1.2 million loss. Fundraising has always been important to them but with the risk of having to cut a third of their beds they need peoples support and donations more than ever. Please know your donations will be going to a fantastic cause to help those who need it most.

For everyone that knows me well knows that while I'm great at drinking in the sun I'm rubbish with heat and hate sand so this is the perfect challenge for me! It will be tough and different from anything I have done before but it will give me focus and you will know I have earned every penny of your donations!
