£900.00 Raised


About Sophie Watkins

Profile picture

I've always had a hankering to jump off Gorey Castle and abseil down the 20m castle walls! In a stroke of serendipity I saw that Headway Jersey wanted people to do just this to raise money for them.

Headway Jersey provides life changing services for those who have suffered from Stroke, Brain Tumour, Aneurysm and Accidents amongst many other causes and their families. Due to Covid-19 they have had devastating losses to their fundraising in 2020/21 of £150,000, which has placed their services under threat.

Please sponsor me for this excellent cause.
