Rachel was inspired to fundraise for Northern Ireland Children’s Hospice as Rachel and her mother, Lucinda, have friends who have benefited from the care and support provided by the Children’s Hospice.

The money raised will also be split between The Little Princess Trust, which provides real hair wigs to children and young people who have lost their hair due to cancer.
