Hello - long time no speak!

I'm sorry I haven't been in touch for a long time but the complications of Covid and trying to find an Orthopaedic Surgeon north of Watford Gap who was able to see me was a little more complex than anticipated.

The examination is done and the next step is an MRI scan.  The examination report is back with my solicitor and, without publicly going into too much detail, is damning.

Time marches on and we are nearly at the end of this lengthy journey.  I will keep you posted as soon as I'm able.  

Take care, keep safe and thanks again.

Hello everyone

92% there! Wow!  I just wanted to give you a quick update - with less than £300 left to go I am so thrilled to have my target in sight.  We are still waiting for the court to respond with a date, not sure quite what the delay is but I do wish they'd hurry up!  I dared to dream we'd get to this point and thanks to everyone of you, the dream is about to become a reality.  

Have a lovely weekend and thank you again.

Hello again -   I can't believe it, we're 74% there!  With 3 days to my original deadline, and £900 to go, I have decided to extend the deadline a little.  We are so close to the stretch target of £3500 and I am confident with a last push we'll smash it!  Thank you again for all your continued support and please, share, share, share!

This morning my lawyer filed my claim at Court. With just a week to go I cannot believe how generous everyone has been with their donations, but also with their support and kind comments.   We still have a little way to go.  Please, if you are able, donate a little (or a lot) we have about £1500 left to raise.  If you can share with your contacts and ask them to support I would be thankful.

I have always believed in standing up for what is right and having courage in my convictions (probably the wrong choice of words here!) Bullies need calling out.  Thank you for helping me do just that. 

Wasn't the first week of our fundraising staggering?  We hit 50% (£1750) which was utterly amazing in just 7 days.  Week 2 has been more about catching our breath and we've strolled a little further forward!  It's time to put our foot down again and speed towards our goal.

Can you help me please?  I'd love you to share the link to my fundraiser with all of your contacts.  If you happen to have won the lottery and you have an extra fiver, please consider donating - every penny and every pound helps.

Thank you for your continued support. C

THANK YOU!  Please share my story, pass the link on to everyone you know and all together now....

As I head off to bed I am so excited to see that we've smashed through the 1/3 of target figure and we're hurtling towards half way. How awesome would it be if we could make that half-way mark by the end of the first week?  Thank you to everyone for your kind comments and generous donations, this is a truly humbling experience.  I know I sound like a broken record but please share, share, share - let's keep this amazing momentum going. Sweet dreams and my heartfelt thanks once again x

I received a message from a friend a few minutes ago  - it read "you've topped a grand!"  I read it three times - I am humbled and staggered at how quickly that money has been pledged!  We are so close to reaching a 1/3 of the target figure - and in just 4 days. It is so reassuring to realise so many of you support my case.  Please continue to share my story.  

Thank you again and seriously - to everyone who has pledged so far, as we say up north,  "you're grand!" 

I went to bed last night on the brink of the first goal being reached and this morning I work up to see we'd smashed through it!  Thank you - proceedings will now be issued and the work starts to reach the stretch target.  If you are able to share my link, please do - as widely and as frequently as you can.  Wishing you a happy bank holiday weekend and again, thank you for your support.

Wow!  I feel blown away by the level of support you have shown me so far. In less than 24 hours we have already hit 74% of our first target.  A heartfelt thank you for helping me get off to a flying start.
