Bupa Great South Run 2009 · 25 October 2009 ·

Chestnut Tree House is the children’s hospice for East Sussex, West Sussex, Brighton and Hove and South East Hampshire, caring for 300 children and young adults from 0-19 years of age, both at the hospice and in families’ own homes.

Story

We have decided to run the 10 Mile Great South Run to raise money for the Chestnut Tree Childrens Hospice.

This hospice helps provide care to Abigail, who is 2 years old and has Tay Sachs, an incurable, life-limiting condition, and support to her parents and our close friends Mick and Jules.  

Chestnut Tree House is the only children's hospice in Sussex and cares for children and young adults from 0-19 years of age with progressive life-limiting and life-threatening illnesses.  It offers support for the whole family including psychological support, care in bereavement therapy, and end of life and respite care. The hospice costs approximately £2 million per year to run and receives very little government funding.

Now those of you who know us well know that one of us has a propensity for making outlandish claims about climbing Everest, running marathons and ultra marathons, doing triathlons etc etc etc that never get fulfilled. This time it is different, honest, so please dig deep and make it worth our while and support a great cause at the same time.

Ant and Matt.
