<p>I will be running the Chester half marathon on the 13th May to help raise money for St John's Hospice in loving memory of my mum Eve.</p> <p>The staff here are amazing and what they do goes above and beyond their job, they were supportive, friendly and respectful when we needed it most. The hospice provided a calm, peaceful and very personal enviroment which I am very greatful for.</p> <p>St John's Philospohy;</p> <p>"The aim of Wirral Hospice St&nbsp;John's is to warmly welcome people with progressive illness, which has failed to respond to curative treatment, into the quiet calm of a highly professional caring atmosphere, which comforts always both them and those who are important to them."</p> <p>The annual costs of running the hospice grows each year&nbsp; &ndash; this year the cost of running the Hospice will be &pound;3.1 million pounds. The hospice relies mainly on voluntary donations from local sources to continue to provide the 24 hour special care that they give.</p> <p>Any donations you can give would be greatly appreciated by me and greatly received by the hospice!</p>
