My story

 

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.

I am running the Glasgow Half Marathon on the 6th September 2009 and trying to raise £10,000 for a great charity called the St Andrew's Hospice, who need to raise £44,000 each week in life just to break even. Please give as much money as you can to this fantastic hospice for the terminally ill.

St Andrew's Hospice provides specialist palliative care services - the total care of patients with progressive disease and limited prognosis - and is open to all, without distinction of race, gender, or creed. It is Lanarkshire's only Hospice and provides multidisciplinary support for patients, their families, and carers.

Over the years, the Hospice has grown to support the needs of the community by looking ahead to innovative changes and future patient and family requirements.From Modest Beginnings of just 4 beds for the terminally ill, St Andrew's now offers:

  • A 26 bedded specialist palliative care unit moving towards 30 beds
  • A 2 bed respite care service for older adults living in the community and young chronic sick
  • A Day Hospice offering care for up to 60 patients every week
  • A Care at Home service for those patients who choose to want to die at home
  • A specialist range of support services
  • A consultant led domiciliary service
  • A telephone palliative care advice line
  • An education service to support the understanding of palliative care in Lanarkshire and the involvement of Hospice medical staff in palliative care provision in the three District General Hospitals and clinics across the County

Thanks to the generosity and assistance of the people of Lanarkshire, Hospice staff now cares for over 120 patients each week in the Hospice with other services reaching more patients and their families across Lanarkshire.

St Andrew's Hospice is recognised as a registered charity by the Office of the Scottish Charity Regulator (OSCR) (Charity No: SC 010159) and until 2006 was an unincorporated association, operating under the care of the Sisters of Charity.

In April 2006, the Hospice became a company limited by guarantee with charitable status and changed its formal name to become St Andrew's Hospice (Lanarkshire). In its day-to-day business, however, it retains the operational name of St Andrew's Hospice.



Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: St Andrew's Hospice, Lanarkshire gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.
