Hospice Care For All
Imagine being told, on your 49th birthday, that it would be your last……
you can make a difference
Help fight for Hospice Care For All
Imagine being told, on your 49th birthday, that it would be your last.
I still remember the shock of that moment—the diagnosis hit us like a tidal wave. It wasn’t just brain cancer; it was terminal.
My sister, four years my junior, looked me in the eyes and said she wasn’t going to fight it. She wanted peace, and there was nothing her big brother could do about it.
Only 7 weeks and 2 days after hearing that impossible news, she was gone, slipping away before we had the chance to fully grasp the goodbye.
But the Prince of Wales hospice care team was there, guiding us through unimaginable grief and showing us love and compassion I will never forget.
Despite my own health battles, I’m on a mission—step by step, I’m running to honour her memory, to support hospice care for families like ours, and to inspire strength for others who face their own moments of profound loss.
Help those facing their darkest moments to be surrounded by love, not fear.
Hospice Care For All.
Every Little Helps
Having witnessed first-hand the impact of each donation, I’ve seen how even a small amount goes a long way:-
- Just £10 can provide a week’s worth of oils to help with therapy sessions that provide pain relief.
- £20 can fund a nurse to give pain relief, mobility assistance, mealtime assistance and emotional support for several days.
- Each bed costs around £20 per hour to run
- £30 covers an hour of social worker time to provide support to a patient or the family
Every pound truly makes a difference, so if you’re able to contribute—even just a few pounds—please know it will be put to good use and make a real difference in someone’s life.
we can all be amazing
Aiming to give
I lost my younger sister to brain cancer on 30 Apr 2021 (within 7 weeks of diagnosis) and being there every day I witnessed first hand how a hospice can make such a massive difference to someone's end of life, including their family and friends. This inspired me to make time available to raise funds for the Prince of Wales Hospice
Aiming to inspire
Things got more challenging 4 months later on 6 Sep 2021. I suffered Pancreatitus, pneumonia and other complications. I lost half my pancreas, I am on enzyme medication for the rest of my life, plus I now have Type 3 Diabetes. I thought my fundraising efforts were over, but I've not given up! I am also hoping my journey can inspire others to make life changing decisions
want to help in other ways?
If so, I would love to hear from you...
