Donations cannot currently be made to this page
Pilgrims Hospices is a charity providing palliative care, free of charge, to people in east Kent. For people with a range of life-limiting illnesses, specialist services are provided from our three hospices in Canterbury, Ashford and Thanet, in patients' homes and via community programmes.

Story

  • I have often wondered what I can do to raise some money for the Pilgrims hospice as this is where my father spent his last days. My father had a keen interest in aviation and in his passenger log book he had over a hundred entries of different aircraft he had flown in. It occurred to me that I could take him on a journey, not with me in body but in spirit and attempt to either fly in or sit in as many aircraft cockpits. With your help, either by giving or knowing someone that can help make this possible I would be truly grateful. I shall log this journey over the next year through video and photo’s. I thank you in advance and look forward to taking you on an aviation journey in memory of my father.

    To donate I have added the just giving link.
