St Oswald’s Hospice Midnight Walk – 3 July

“I am doing the Midnight Walk again in memory of my best friend’s niece, Aoife Sargeant who passed away a year gone December at the age of 2. St Oswald’s Hospice helped out my friend Emma and her family loads at the time and so I am continuing to support and raise funds in aid of this charity. If anyone would like to sponsor me, then please do so by logging onto the following site: www.justgiving.com/Emma-Sargeant

Many thanks – Steph”
