Rebecca's story
Just five months after husband Kevin’s death, Rebecca and her son, Alex, bravely joined over 80 Santa’s and took part in a St Margaret’s fundraising first, abseiling down Cheddar Gorge to raise money to support hospice care. Rebecca said she will be ‘forever grateful’ for the support St Margaret’s gave her and Kevin in those final few days and it was this support that inspired her to want to do something to give back to the hospice.
“I’d faced my greatest fear when I lost the love of my life, so I knew I could abseil down Cheddar Gorge. Alex and I decided to take on the challenge together in memory of his beloved Pa and we did it!”
