Raising money for

St Michael's Hospice (Hereford)

Charity Registration No. 511179

2009 sees St Michael's Hospice celebrate its 25th anniversary. From the very first day it opened, a commitment was made to provide quality, individualised care to patients who have progressive, life-limiting conditions and to offer support to their carers and families during the patient’s illness and in their bereavement. Over the course of time, services such as our day hospice, family support, complementary therapy, lymphoedema and out patient clinics have developed. It will cost £3.6 million to run the Hospice this year and we need to raise more than £3 million of that amount. Support from community fundraisers is invaluable and very much appreciated. Thank you.

My story

Thanks for visiting our fundraising page.

We did it! We completed the infamous Three Peaks challenge on the weekend of the 6th June 2009. We climbed the three highest peaks in Scotland (Ben Nevis), England (Scafell Pike) and Wales (Snowdon) in less than 24hrs. In fact we did it in 21 hours 15 minutes, and were very thankful for the excellent logistical support that enabled this.

A huge "Thank You" to everyone that sposored us, and helped make this such a worthwhile endeavour.

The full team consisted of Charlie Wakefield, Greg Chiappini, Jonty Shepard, Steve Vinall, Tom Cartwright and Will Gardner. Not a weak link among us!

We are raising money for two very worthy Hospices who provide specialist palliative care to adults facing the end of their life. This is an invaluable service that hospitals are not able to provide, and funding for these establishments has to come mainly from charitable donations. Sponsoring us on this page will provide funds to St Michael's Hospice (more details to the left). Alternatively you can go to our other page (www.justgiving.com/jontyshepard) to make your donation to the Phyllis Tuckwell Hospice in Surrey.

Donating through Justgiving is a quick, easy and totally secure way to give money to these fantastic hospices, and ensures that, if you’re a UK taxpayer, they get 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement added to your donation.

So please sponsor us now, and thank you for anything you can give.
