Story

Tony McCrossan and Mike Mackay will each run 874 miles during 2021. We have chosen a charity which provided support to Tony’s Dad Harry and our family during the difficult final months of Harry’s life. We do this run in the memory of Harry and in celebration of his life.The Haven is a registered charity providing support to people affected by a range of life limiting illnesses and to their family members and carers.The story of The Haven The Haven was founded in 2002 after being a vision of Dr Rosalie Dunn MBE to widen the scope of supportive and palliative care services to include people living with non-malignant disease.Dr Dunn recognised a need for additional support for her clients and felt there needed to be a place where clients could be offered practical and emotional support in a non-clinical setting. The Haven started off with one centre, one nurse and (an incredible) 20 volunteers and now we have grown and developed to have three centres across Lanarkshire to provide support services for individuals and families affected by life limiting illness.Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure.
