Story

I'm running the Great Eastern Run this year in memory of my Mum, and would love to raise as much as I can for this fantastic cause. My Mum passed away at Thorpe Hall in July 1998 and to mark her 20 year anniversary I would like to raise as much money as I can for Thorpe Hall. This was my Mum's final resting place and I just remember how amazing the nurses were, this is why I want to run for Sue Ryder. I will be running with my friend Kate by side who will also be helping to raise money xx

Please help me to raise as much as i can

20th September 2018
This year marked the 20 year anniversary of our Mum passing. To mark this Holli set herself up on a mission to raise £5,000 for this amazing cause. She well and truly smashed her target and now it's my turn to get involved. I have been running on and off for the last couple of years, but this last year I have really found a passion in running. I attend Werrington joggers with Kate, and we try and sign up to as many 10k races as we can. Running the Great Eastern is not only about improving my running ability but I’s about raising as much money as I can for this amazing cause. My Mum passed away in July 1998 at Thorpe Hall and I remember how amazing all of the nurses were to both my Mum and us as a family, and now I feel like it’s my turn to give something back by raising money for them. Please take some time to have a look at our memory page of our Mum and any donation you would like to give, big or small would be grately appreciated. This will help is towards our £10,000 target which both Holli and I will be working towards fundraising for over the next year. Thank you Kayley xx
