It is with a heavy heart, and tears in my eyes as I write this, that I have some very sad news to share with you all.
This isn't an easy post to make, and it's a long one, so please bear with me and swipe through to read the full message.

Thank you for everything.
With love and gratitude,
Deborah ❤️

If anyone wants to get in touch, please do 07966 264003 and spread the word I don’t like to think of anyone being disappointed 🥰

On Saturday night myself and my family took part in the Walk in the Dark for Rosemere Cancer Foundation, walking all the way from Chorley Hospital to Royal Preston Hospital alongside the amazing team 💛

It was such an emotional and powerful experience, walking together in support of such an important cause that means so much to so many people. Every step reminded us why events like this matter — for the patients, the families, and the incredible work Rosemere does.

My legs are still hurting me today, but it was 100% worth it 🙈

I just want to say a huge thank you to everyone who supported me — whether you donated, shared kind words, or cheered us on. Your support truly means everything and helped keep us going through the night.

So proud to have been part of this, and even prouder to have done it with my family 🤍✨

Today was a really special day 💛

I joined my amazing friends for defibrillator awareness training. This was all made possible by Connie, who has worked so hard to raise funds and have a defib installed in memory of her dear friend and colleague Suzanne. Thank you Jane for the sensitive training lovely to see you too 🥰

It was an emotional but incredibly important day, and I’m so grateful to have been a part of it with Suzanne’s family and friends. I was proud to provide lunch and so touched to receive the most beautiful flowers from Connie 🌸

It really shows the strength of others supporting each other, learning together, and making a difference.

Feeling very grateful to be able to help where I can 🤍
