Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity. So it’s the most efficient way to donate – saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

Sadly last year my Mum lost her battle with cancer and peacefully left us. During the last few weeks of her life the nurses from St Clare’s were amazing; they made Mum’s time left with us bearable for her, so she could enjoy the time we had together. They were lovely ladies too, treating Mum like a princess – just what we all needed to lift our spirits.

Many of us will see a loved one suffer over our life time and even more of us will have to come to terms with their death at the end. St Clare’s Hospice, Hastingwood, Essex offers a wide range of hospice services which helps them provide high quality, specialist care for people as they reach the end of their life and also the people left behind. 

Time has passed and my family and I are adapting to the hole now filling our life but I think it’s now time to say thank you.

To do this I am hosting a charity ball later this year to raise much needed funds for St Clare’s. 

If you want to donate to the cause then please feel free - anything you can offer, will be greatly appreciated and will help make my event a success. All I want from the event is to make some money that I can give back to St Clare’s as a thank you. My mum would want to say thank you – so I want to do it on her behalf.
