Signed Wrexham AFC Shirt

25 July, 2023

My husband Dave Ross Scott sadly passed away in August 2017 following an incredibly brave battle with cancer. The hospice supported Dave and I through an extremely challenging time and I have made it my mission to fundraise for the hospice ever since.

With the help and support of amazing family, friends, and local businesses we have raised over £120,000 for the hospice. Dave has a tribute fund at the hospice and all donations are allocated in his memory.

My fundraising started with the sale of Dave`s vespa, followed by his mountain and road bike with all proceeds given to the hospice.

I then decided to take on some challenges, including trekking The Great Wall of China, Cycling Vietnam to Cambodia and then last year I trekked to Machu Picchu along the Inca Trail in Peru and successfully summated Kilimanjaro, all within 8 weeks of each other. Kilimanjaro has been my toughest challenge to date.

This year I am trekking the mountains of Croatia, cycling Milan to Venice, and trekking the final 100 kilometres of the Camino de Santiago as well as holding various fundraising events throughout the year.

I always say life can change in an instant. Some good must come out of the loss of an incredible man. We met for a reason and now I can help a cause that helped Dave.

To support my fundraising for the hospice in Dave`s memory Andrew at ASH Waste Services, part of the ASH Group of companies has kindly donated a signed Wrexham AFC shirt that he was given after the company sponsored Man of the Match at the Wrexham AFC v Notts County game on Monday 10th April 2023. Man of the Match at that game was Paul Mullin.
