I am running the London Marathon (my first 26.2 mile run!) on Sunday 22nd April 2018 raising money to refurbish West Mid Children’s Ward and for the housing charity Shelter.Please support me by giving generously through my fundraising page - https://uk.virginmoneygiving.com/RuthCadburyThe SUN & STARS APPEAL  - Raising money to transform West Middlesex Hospital Childrens’ WardsThe children's inpatient wards care for over 8,000 babies, children and young people every year. The hospital staff provide excellent care, however the ward environment needs an urgent refurbishment. Sun & Stars is a £100,000 appeal to transform the wards into a bright, fun and welcoming environment for the young patients and their parents, provide better play facilities, bring entertainment & distraction to the bedside, create a teenagers’ area, transform facilities for parents https://www.cwplus.org.uk/our-work/patient-experience/childrens-wards/SHELTER So much of my casework involves housing problems, and I have referred many many people to Shelter for high quality specialist advice and support. They help people who are homeless, or facing eviction, those who have problems with their landlord or with money issues Last year, Shelter gave information, support and advice to millions of people facing homelessness or experiencing housing issues. And they won’t stop until there’s a safe, secure, affordable home for everyone. https://england.shelter.org.uk/what_we_do
