Warrior Adrenaline Obstacle Course Race 10K

[p]The team at Think Specialist Recruitment have been supporting The Pepper Foundation as our Charity of Choice. Our Managing Director, Chris Jones, is taking part in the 10km Warrior Adrenaline Race with his 3 sisters (Lisa, Gaby and Nicole) on 21st April to raise funds for The Pepper Foundation, with all donations to be matched by Think! [/p][p]Any fundraising activity in 2018 that we raise money from, as a team in and outside of the office, will go towards supporting this amazing local charity - here's a bit more about them:[/p][p]The Pepper Foundation is a registered charity which funds the hospice at home children's nursing team. [/p][p]This innovative paediatric team, (known as the Pepper Nurses), offers specialist palliative care and support to children with a life-threatening or life-limiting illness throughout the Chilterns area of Hertfordshire and Buckinghamshire. The nurses work with families to provide individualised care and support for each child in their own home on a 24 hour, 365 days of the year, on-call basis.[/p][p] The Pepper Nurses currently care for more than 50 children at any one time, at absolutely no cost to the patients or their families. [/p][p] [b]What does the service provide?[/b][/p][p]The nurses are qualified paediatric nurses with extensive experience in caring for children and young people up to 19 years of age with conditions that require palliative or end-of-life care. The team works in partnership with all other professionals involved with the child and family to ensure co-ordination of care.[/p][p]Family support has always been an integral part of the nursing team's philosophy of care which is why The Pepper Foundation also provides funding for the Children's and Family Support Therapist who offers pre and post bereavement support to families.[/p]
