For over 70 years, HCPT has journeyed to Lourdes with thousands of children and adults with additional needs-creating magic for guests and volunteers alike. All faiths, one heart. As our founder said: "It wasn't me at all - it was all of us." Your support means everything. 💛

Story

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page. Please dig deep and sponsor me online.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: HCPT - The Pilgrimage Trust will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.

Each year during Easter week HCPT-The Pilgrimage Trust take approximately 2000 sick, disabled and socially disadvantaged children on a holiday Pilgrimage to Lourdes.

The holiday features trips to the mountains, forests and local cafes. Fancy dress parties, picnics, singing and trips out are all part of the experience. For one week, children, many with significant life difficulties are treated as honoured guests and not seen as "problems that wont go away". These are very often the children and young people that nobody else can or will take on holiday

Group 185 HCPT The Pilgrimage Trust, is based in Wroughton and has given over 65 local children one or more special holidays over the last 10 years. We will be taking 4 or 5 more children on holiday again in 2008.

Approximately 60 people are walking 50 Kms over 2 days in February to raise funds for this trip.Help me to reach my target, please sponsor me now!

Many thanks for your support.
