St Luke's (Cheshire) Hospice - Santa Dash · 13 December 2009 ·

Since 1988, St Luke’s has been providing specialist, palliative care and support to local people, supporting them in ways which go beyond the scope and funding of the NHS. Our support begins from the moment someone is diagnosed, through to palliative care and ultimately end of life care.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

This year I have opted for something different - a winter walk rather than a summer one.  I opted for the 10k stroll rather than the 5k dash (bit too energetic for a Sunday morning).

I am used to visiting Oulton Park, but more to spectate those on the track rather than being on the track myself - but hey this is for a very good cause. It took 1 hour 35 mins to do 2 laps of the track (never looks that far on the telly!) and the picture is me at the end sporting my medal.

St Luke's do an excellent job for those who are sick or terminally ill. They offer help and support not only to the patients but to the families and those caring for others in the community.  Without their help, compassion and guidance, many people would not have made it through their darkest days.

They need £5,600 per day to keep the hospice running and events like this are a vital way of raising the much needed funds.

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 - every penny counts
