Margaret Hesketh died at Wigan Hospital in November 2014, having been diagnosed with cancer. A post-mortem examination revealed she died of pneumonia

Recently the Foundation has been talking about the different types of abuse on our Blog, and yesterday it lead to discussions amongst ourselves as to how we believed that person Centre Care needs to be the norm, not the lip service we see on so many different occasions. 

Tough Mudder Event - Kindness in Care Campaign

                  
The Edith Ellen Foundations' very own Lara attended the grooling Tough Mudder event on Sunday 25th September 2016 



to help raise funding for the Foundation; to enable us to apply for our Kindness in Care's entire Training Programme to be accredited.

By all accounts a good day was had by all, thank you again Lara

 

Tough Mudder is a 10-12-mile mud and obstacle course designed to drag you out of your comfort zone by testing your physical strength, stamina, and mental grit. 

With no podiums, winners, or clocks to race against, it’s not about how fast you can cross the finish line. Rather, it’s a challenge that emphasizes teamwork, camaraderie, and accomplishing something almost as tough as you are.

It is Probably the toughest event on the planet

We would be grateful if people are able to support her and the Foundation by going to our website through our Edith Ellen Website or Paypal link to donate, Thank You
