In march 2018 my granny chose to spend her last days in strathcarron hospice in denny. For the past 7 years i have regularly thought of and have been so grateful for the lovely staff and nurses who were so kind and accommodating. Despite it being a heartbreaking time and my first experience with loss, i look back on the time and i feel so much appreciation for the people at Strathcarron. I can only hope i raise my target of £500 and that i can give back to this amazing organisation, so i can try to help them the way they have helped my granny, family and so many others! I will be running the Edinburgh half marathon in 2026, i have never ran recreationally before, let alone attempted a half marathon! So i am definitely going from 0-100 or in other words couch potato to hopeful athlete! My granny was a one of a kind woman, who i am lucky to have had in my life and to share my name with. Wish me luck! Holly Jean Reid
