Story

Thanks for having a peek at my Just Giving page!

For anyone who knows me, they'll know I'm no stranger to signing up for all sorts of weird and wonderful events all across the UK!

But seeing as I'm turning 30 this year (yes, only 30! for those sniggering at the back) I wanted to do something for a charity that does so much for all of the people who need and use its facilities.

Located in Ryhope,  Sunderland the hospice offers care, advice and support for patients, and their families, who have a life-limiting illness. St Benedict’s Hospice has a long history and the experienced and professional clinical and volunteer teams are committed to providing the highest level of care for all who need it in their care. (http://www.stbenedicts.co.uk/)

A member of my family recently needed the help and assistance of St Benedicts Hospice and from seeing the level of care they provided for him with my own eyes, I wanted to give something back.

And so, with the big 3 - 0 upon me (that's my age, not the score Sunderland usually beat Newcastle by) I will take part in and organise 30 different events throughout 2016. (This in itself is a challenge!) See the list so far below, any suggestions welcome, but it'll cost you a donation to make them ;)

The aim being to raise £30,000 by the time I'm done!

Please help and support where you can and accept my thanks in advance for anything you can give.

Cheers

Anth :)
