iPads for the Covid Ward, In memory of Greg Hand,
Spende geschützt
My name is Emma Morris, (Greg Hands Neice) who sadly lost his battle to Covid January 2021.
And i would like to run 28 miles or more if i can, throughout February, to raise money for iPads for the Covid Ward at the Royal university of North Staffs.
During these hard times, i feel absolutely helpless not being able to comfort my Aunty and Cousin, as restrictions are keeping us apart. And one thing they need is family by their side, the same way they were by ours when we lost my dad (Gregs Brother). They were our ROCK, and i want to be theirs. So if i can help them in anyway, it will be the way they found comfort when Uncle Greg was in the hospital, as i know they would want the same for other families.
MY UNCLE GREG WAS A MACHINE IN MY EYES. From when i can remember up until now he was so muscular, and strong! He loved to work out and look after his body.
Hes the fittest 62 year old i know. And i had no doubt im my mind that he wouldn't beat this awful virus, but unfortunately it suprised us all.
He held a soft spot in my heart, he brought me comfort in many ways when losing my dad, which he never new, just by looking at him, and hearing his voice. He had so much passion for music and his voice when singing is absolutely beautiful.
My Aunty mentioned to my mum that the patients in the ICU covid ward have access to iPads, so they can keep intouch with their families, which is so comforting both ends. I know they are limited to devices, and i would love to provide another to the ward, so they can spend more time talking to their family. This form of contact is crucial in times like this, this is the only way to hold your family members hand.
So if you could imagine the comfort this brings to families, when they are able to video call their loved ones, and the strength it gives to the patient, its just indescribable.
I'd be so greatful for anyone that could sponsor me, and help bring comfort to families who have family members in ICU with covid19.

I will of course, keep you updated on the progress of the Run and handover to the North Staffs Covid Ward.
(ANY MONEY OVER THE AMOUNT, WILL BE DONATED TO THE COVID WARD ALSO, BUT IF I GET WAY MORE THAN EXPECTED, I WILL BUY AS MANY IPADS AS I CAN )
Thank you so Much.
