I'm fundraising for...

St Christopher's

This year on the 11th May 2025 me & Scott will be walking 8miles to raise money for St Christopher's.

This charity is very close to our hearts. They helped my mum towards the end of her life, when she was taken away from us by cancer. The support we have received during & after this time has been amazing. We will forever be grateful & will always support St Christopher's. 

Sponsor us and help to provide expert end of life care to people in South London. 

Every penny helps & all goes to St Christopher's.

Thank you so much ❤️

Our Story

Thursday 6th Feb
Back in the beginng of 2022 mum was diagnosed with that dreaded word cancer. After meeting with the consultant we prepared for the hard road ahead with chemotherapy etc. What we were not prepared for was how aggressive the cancer was. Such that within a few days she was not well enough to be assed for treatment. We tried to prepare ourselves for each stage that would occur but the speed (particularly over the last week or so) is something we still struggle with. We can't say she passed away peacefully as despite increase in her medication we could tell she was in pain.

Life is so cruel. On the 26th April 2020 mum lost her battle & grew her angel wings. 

My mother was under St Christopher's for a short period of time. During that short period of time they gave her the time and dignity she deserved while also making sure we had the assistance we could get. They helped her at her last moments when she needed it the most. Even the aftercare is outstanding they are always just a phone call away and happy to see us whenever we pop by their centre. We always support St Christopher's and they will always hold a place in our hearts.

Please help us raise as much money as possible. Every penny counts and all money goes to St Christopher's.

Thank you ❤️
