Cranleigh 10km · 7 July 2013

'A remarkable charity caring for remarkable people' Care for Veterans (formerly The Queen Alexandra Hospital Home) is a national charity, providing high quality, nursing care and rehabilitation for disabled ex-Service personnel in an environment they can think of as their home.

Story

On Sunday 7 July I will be running the Cranleigh 10km for Queen Alexandra’s Hospital Home Worthing. 

Last year my Dad suffered a stroke, leaving him hemiplegic and aphasic.  This summer he will spend several weeks at Queen Alexandra’s receiving rehabilitative and respite care.

Please support me in my challenge of running 10km for a fantastic charity!

 Many thanks,

 More information on the Home:

Since 1919 The Queen Alexandra Hospital Home charity (QAHH) has been providing nursing & rehabilitation for disabled ex-Servicemen and women. QAHH is home to sixty long-term and respite residents who have travelled from all over the UK to take advantage of our on-site services. On any given day at QAHH, ex-Servicemen are learning to walk again in our physiotherapy department, stroke victims are finding their voice in occupational therapy and veterans who gave their life to their country, are being cared for on our wards.

 

For 94 years our charity has provided first-class support for disabled ex-Servicemen and women. With no government funding it’s imperative we raise £1.3 million each year in order to keep providing the care our heroes deserve and to remain for the injured returning from Afghanistan, who will undoubtedly need our help in years to come.
