Supporting Willow Wood Hospice: My Charity Journey

​

Supporting Willow Wood Hospice has been a cause very close to my heart and over the years I’ve been proud to contribute in a number of ways to help the incredible work they do in our community.

​

My journey began in 2021 when I took part in a firewalk challenge, something completely outside my comfort zone. Walking barefoot over hot coals was both nerve-wracking and empowering, but knowing it was all for Willow Wood Hospice gave me the courage to take that step (literally!). It was an unforgettable experience and a powerful way to raise funds and awareness.

​

Since then, I’ve continued to support the hospice through ongoing donations. While they may seem like small contributions at times, I know that every bit helps to ensure patients and families receive the compassionate care they deserve. Being able to give regularly feels like a meaningful way to stay connected to the cause.

​

One of my favourite annual efforts is contributing to the Creme Egg appeal for their Bunny Hop fundraiser. It’s a fun and light-hearted way to get involved, and it’s always amazing to see the community come together. Whether it’s donating chocolate eggs or helping spread the word, it’s a small gesture that brings a lot of joy while supporting such an important service.

​

What makes Willow Wood Hospice so special is the impact they have on people’s lives. Knowing that my efforts—whether big or small—help support that care is incredibly rewarding.

​

I’m grateful to play even a small part in supporting such a vital charity, and I look forward to continuing this journey in the years to come.
