Raising money for

St Luke's Hospice (Sheffield)

Charity Registration No. 254402

St Luke's is Sheffield's only hospice, offering specialist end of life care free of charge to people across the whole of Sheffield. St Luke's Hospice cared for more than 1,400 patients last year, providing care for the whole community from Stocksbridge to Swallownest, from Dore to Darnall. St Luke's cares for people in three main ways - the in-patient unit with its 30 beds, the Therapies and Rehabilitation Centre, which looks after the needs of our day patients, and our team of 11 community nurses, caring for people in their own homes. Every year St Luke's relies on the generosity of the people of Sheffield to help raise more than £4.5 million to keep the hospice open.

My story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

On Sunday 11th October 2009 I am taking part in the Perkins Great Eastern Run in Peterborough, in an attempt to run my first half marathon (13.1miles).

As part of the run I will be raising money for St Luke's Hospice in Sheffield. I have been working at St Luke's part-time for a number of months now, and the Hospice relies a lot on donations and charity events for money towards the running costs. So I can think of nothing better than to try and raise money for the hospice by competing in a half marathon.

I am hoping to raise as much money as possible, and would even like to beat the target I have set, so any money you could donate would be gratefully recieved.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please dig deep and donate now.

Thanks,

Shaun
