Raising money for

CHASE Hospice Care for Children

Charity Registration No. 1042495

CHASE hospice care for children provides nursing, practical, and emotional support to families with children who are not expected to reach their 19th birthday, across South West London, Surrey and Sussex.

The CHASE service is committed to offering a personalised service to suit each family’s individual needs. Dedicated help is given starting immediately after diagnosis, through bereavement and beyond. This support is offered to families in their homes, their local communities and at our children’s hospice, Christopher’s.

The CHASE service is provided 365 days of the year at no cost to the families themselves.

CHASE needs to raise £4 million in every year to ensure our vital service continues. With minimal Government funding, we rely on donations to achieve this. Your help will enable us to continue to offer the full range of our invaluable services to families that need our help – letting them down is not an option!

My story

Last year a group of us took to the Thames and competed in The Great River Race. Following on from our success we have upped the ante and are now taking on The English Channel. However not content with it being a challenge in itself we are also racing a group of determined, fearless and well trained girls called The Sisterhood in THE CHANNEL CHALLENGE - Beauty versus Brawn.

In the English Channel, where our expected 6 hour journey will be passing over 70 liners and 300 other ships, there are no foregone conclusions......And these girls mean business....... Let the battle commence!

We are raising money for 2 charities through our efforts.

1) The CHASE Ben Hollioake Fund supporting life-limited children. These are children who are not expected to live past the age of 19.

2) The Babes in Arms Appeal, carrying out research into cot death, still birth and infant abnormalties

All the money you donate will go straight into the charities, so dig deep and thank you very much.

We will also be throwing other fundraising events to make a significant difference to these charities so keep your eyes on www.brotherhoodchallenge.com

Yours in heavenly pursuit.
