Mother skates for 22 hours in loving memory of her son
Georgie Moseley, founder of charity Help Harry Help Others (HHHO), completed 22 hours of roller skating this week in proud memory of her son Harry.
From 5pm on Monday 21 February until 3pm on Tuesday 22 February, Georgie set off skating around the charity's cancer support centre to mark her amazing son Harry 's 22nd Birthday and the current support centres 4th Birthday.
This was the first time Georgie has put her skates on since 2016 when she skated for 16 hours in memory of Harry.
Georgie said the early hours of Tuesday morning onwards were the hardest, but she was supported by friends, clients, and charity supporters throughout, trying to keep her going and spirits high.
Georgie 's face lit up later in the day when her family members turned up to cheer her on, especially her grandchildren (also meaning she could use the pram for support).
From 1pm - 4pm HHHO held a mini-Birthday party at the centre which involved a DJ, buffet, cake, and balloons- all kindly donated by supporters.
With the end of her 22-hour challenge drawing near, everyone gathered outside to spur Georgie on and watch her cross the finish line (or in Georgie 's case fall straight over the finish line due to pure exhaustion)
Despite the challenge, Georige did it with true determination and kept Harry in her mind at all times.
Georgie 's amazing efforts raised £3921.78 for the cancer support centre, which will go straight back into helping our clients and their families on a daily basis.
