Jo Adam of Hampton Hill is trekking to Everest Base Camp in March 2010 to raise money for the Woking Hospice where her mother Anna spent some weeks last summer.Jo said, “The help, care and support given not only to my mother, but also to my father, sisters and me last year was absolutely amazing. The staff really opened our eyes to another area of care we previously had no real knowledge or experience of. The staff at the Hospice gave Mummy the proper care she needed whilst she stayed there, all in a warm and friendly atmosphere. When she came home for her last few days they again helped us hugely as a family, not just helping us to organize carers to visit, but with all round help in every area and also all the equipment we needed to make Anna's last days with us as comfy and pleasant as possible. This help was not only massively beneficial to Mummy, but also a great support and comfort to Daddy, Jane, Shena and me.”
