Tonight I was joined by a guest who returned to Body Talk for the second time. Her name is Louise Larner and a lot has happened since she was last with us in June 2010. For a start she has changed her name and her job !! Louise is now the physiotherapy Manager at Spire Hartswood Hospital and she was talking about a special project that she is involved with.
As Physiotherapy Manager she is still very hands on. Two thirds of her time is spent with patients, mainly specialising in fooot and ankle problems. She is also responsible for a team of about 20 staff.
Amazingly she has also found time for a special project. She is climbing to base Camp of Mount Everest to raise money for St Francis Hospice. She is doing the climb with her uncle and it will take about 19 days to reach the camp which is about 5.5km above sea level. For every metre climbed Louise hopes to raise £1.
If you’d like to donate to this worthy cause you can find details on www.spirehartswood.comhomepage or text 70070-larn82 followed by the amount you wish to donate.
It’s a fantastic tribute to the work of St Francis Hospice and we all wish you every success. We’re looking forward to hearing all about it.
