Raising money for

Prospect Hospice

Charity Registration No. 280093

Prospect Hospice was founded thirty years ago, and has brought dedicated end of life care to thousands of patients, and support for their families, in Swindon, Marlborough and north Wiltshire since then. Prospect's work, in the community, in the purpose-built Hospice, and in patients' homes, is given freely, but costs more than £4.5m each year to deliver, three quarters of which we must raise ourselves.

We depend, as we always have, on the support of the local community to enable us to deliver our care for patients and families. Find out more about Prospect Hospice by visiting our website prospect-hospice.net

My story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I am running my first marathon in aid of the Prospect Hospice and Maria Peach.

The money will assist in supporting the wealth of services that the Hospice offers in the local community free of charge. This includes a young carers group for children who assist in caring for their terminally ill parents/siblings, and hospice care at home.

The significance of this is that a work colleagues sister, Maria Lisa Peach, is 47 and terminally ill. She has a husband, an 8 year old son and two daughters.

Any additional funds raised will go towards buying a mobility scooter which would allow Maria some independence again as she is currently totally house-bound. This scooter will allow Maria to pick her son up from school and lead as normal a life as possible. These donations can be made separately on a sponsorship form. If you would like to do this please contact me at jim.emery@btinternet.com

Beachy Head Marathon, as well as being 26.2 miles long, is generally thought to be the most demanding on British soil due to the varying elevation. Give me the boost I will need and donate what you can to help get me over those hills!

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please dig deep and donate now.
