My Story

Hi my name is Pippa and I'm 12 years old. I'm abseiling almost 70ft off the roof of The Great North Children's Hospital to raise funds for Chuf and Newcastle Hospitals Charity! I love fundraising and I push my confidence to challenge myself. My little cousin's life was saved at The Great North Children’s Hospital when she had a brain tumour so I'm doing it for her. We have lots of friends who also rely on this hospital and I hear about all the brill things the money will be spent on as my mam works for the charity. Please support me with any small donation. Thank you, from Pips x
