Story

I'm walking because the Hospice of the Good Shepherd, which is located in the Saughall and Mollington Ward (Backford village) of Cheshire West and Chester Council which I represent, is one of the most important charities around. When people need it most, they make a big difference in helping families in West Cheshire and Deeside with Specialist Palliative Care. 

Working closely with other health care professionals, they provide quality specialist palliative and end of life care for the people, relatives and carers of our local community. 

The Hospice, which is not part of the NHS, receives only 25% of its income from government funding meaning it has to raise just over £3million each year from donations, fundraising events and charity shops.

Please consider sponsoring me for this walk to help make a small contribution to this essential work.

Thank you!
