VICKY TREKS THE GREAT WALL OF CHINA!

The Donna Louise Children's Hospice Trust provides respite for children with life threatening conditions and support for the whole family at the hospice and in their own home. The hospice called Treetops is based in Trentham, on the outskirts of Stoke-on-Trent. Here they provide respite and end of life care for children from all over Staffordshire and South Cheshire that are between the ages of 0 and 19 years and have a life-threatening illness. They provide a safe, caring environment where children and families can truly feel at home. Also, a community nursing team provide respite and end of life care to children and families within their own homes.

Currently the Trust cares for 160 families from South Cheshire and Staffordshire. Its annual running costs of Â£2 million are obtained mainly from public donations.

This is a fantastic cause and one that I, Vicky, now feel very passionate about, especially after visiting the hospice for an open day. The charity is struggling for funding and due to this it has got to close 2 days a week, which is an awful shame. It is because of this plight that I chose to raise some much needed money for this cause.

In October, I will be taking on the challenge of trekking the Great Wall of China to raise money for the Donna Louise Childrenâ€™s Hospice Trust. It will not only be a real physical challenge, but also a mental challenge. My training for the trek will include pounding the treadmill and working hard on the stepper, I will be walking miles outside of the club as well to not only increase my stamina but also to break my walking boots in.

Any donations, no matter how big or small would be greatly appreciated.
