Farleigh Hospice- Trek for Life Cambodia 2010 · 30 January 2010 to 8 February 2010 ·

Farleigh Hospice provides hospice care & support to people affected by life-limiting illnesses. With approximately 40% of our annual running costs funded by the local NHS, we rely on the goodwill of the local mid Essex community to contribute to the £21,271 it costs to provide our services each day.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I am trying to raise £3,000 for Farleigh Hospice by taking part in their trek to Cambodia. This is not a holiday - it's a physical, mental and emotional challenge and a way of giving something back by raising much needed funds for this wonderful Hospice.

What is a Hospice?

There are a number of hospices throughout the UK and worldwide. Hospices provide palliative care for people in their local community with cancer and other illnesses.

Their work focuses on living not dying and helps patients and their families to continue to live beyond the diagnosis of a life limiting illness.

Maybe I can persuade you to be extra generous by telling you about some of the daily expenses ;

£ 37.00 pays for an Occupational Therapist to visit a patient at home for an hour

£ 64.00 pays for a nurse to visit a patient at home

£ 79.00 pays for the daily cost of running the Mobile Hospice vehicle

£ 118.00 pays for a day  patient to visit the Hospice for a day

£ 416.00 pays for the care of one inpatient for 24 hours

These are just a few facts about the costs of running a Hospice. For more information about Farleigh Hospice please visit their website http://www.farleighhospice.org

All the money raised will be given to Farleigh Hospice to help with the wonderful work that they do in the community.
