Raising money for

Hospice of St Mary of Furness

Charity Registration No. 517738

St Mary’s is the dedicated provider in South Cumbria of comprehensive specialised supportive and palliative care for people with life-limiting conditions. Our facilities and services are available to all adults who are facing the end of life, and to their families, carers and the bereaved. Patients with life limiting illnesses are cared for at the hospice, as in-patients, or by attendance at day clinics or therapy sessions, and – increasingly – at home. We care for patients facing the end of life, regardless of diagnosis, and for those who love them. Our holistic programmes address the physical, emotional, social and spiritual needs of patients and carers. All St Mary’s care is provided free of charge, but it is not cost free. Just to maintain our current services costs around £2.2 million a year, of which we have to raise £1.8 million from our supporters.

My story

Hi everyone and thanks for visiting our fundraising page.

The Communications girls are risking their lives for charity and taking part in a 10,000 feet tandem skydive in aid of St Mary's Hospice. The skydive will take place on Saturday 12th September 2009 at Cark Airfield.

We will be freefalling through the air (without the parachute deployed) for several thousand feet and I will be harnessed to a professional parachute instructor at all times throughout the decent.

St Mary's Hospice is the dedicated provider in South Cumbria of comprehensive specialised supportive and palliative care for people with life-limiting conditions. Their facilities and services are available to all adults who are facing the end of life, their families, carers and the bereaved. All St Mary's care is provided free of charge, but it is not cost free. Just to maintain their current services costs around £2.2 million a year, of which they have to raise £1.8 million from supporters.

Our aim is to raise as much money as possible through sponsorship and I would value your support. £10 would go along way but any amount would be gratefully received.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: St Mary's Hospice gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.
