My Story

I have worked in the NHS for 22 years, the last 18 of those as a registered nurse.  Last year I relied heavily on our NHS when I badly broke my elbow.  I needed surgery and months of intensive rehab to get back to my usual daily activities and be able to do my job again.  The care and treatment  from my local hospital was amazing!  This September, I am really excited to have the opportunity to run the Great North Run and raise some much needed pennies for NHS Charities Together 💙

The NHS is currently facing the most challenging period in its history. Donations to NHS Charities Together enable the health service to go above and beyond. Through its 241 member charities across the UK, funds will improve services for patients and support NHS staff to continue their vital work.
