My Story

Many of you may know that during lockdown I and a friend challenged each other to complete the couch to 5K.  Lovely Jo Wiley and my friend got me to the end and now I am running 3 times a week for 30+ minutes.  Something I never ever thought I would be able to do! This running along with my Slimming World is helping me to become a healthier me. I am not the fastest of runners but am doing it! 

This came on my FB and I thought what better charity to support to complete my first official 5K run. Please help me to raise much needed funds for an amazing place.  A place where my wonderful mum passed away.  A place that I personally cannot thank enough for all the care they gave my mum and myself and my family. 

Thank you for supporting me on my first ever official 5K run :-D 

Fundraising through events like our lake run help Willen Hospice to continue to care for local people who are living with life-limiting illnesses. The Hospice has a very special place in the hearts of people in MK and surrounding areas.

At the toughest time of their lives, they do everything they can so people feel relief from pain and families can enjoy the precious moments they have left together. Whilst they can't change a patients diagnosis, Willen can help improve their quality of life, as they come to terms with their illness. Their highly skilled professional team provide the best quality and heartfelt care - and it's all free to everyone who needs them, but they can only do this because of the support of people like us. Thank you again for supporting me to help Willen Hospice.
