Raising money for

Cornwall Hospice Care

Charity Registration No. 1113140

Cornwall Hospice Care provides care and support throughout Cornwall, for people living with life-threatening illnesses, their families and carers, not only in our two hospices - St Julia’s in Hayle and Mt Edgcumbe in St Austell - but also in outreach centres across the county. Last year, nearly 500 people benefited from over 7,400 bed days, receiving treatment to alleviate pain and control symptoms. The care given to patients and their families is provided free of charge, but costs us over £5 million annually (£10 a minute). Only 13% of this is funded by the government which means that we rely heavily on the generous support of the general public, donations, challenges and fundraising events. All the money we raise stays in Cornwall.

My story

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.

I am attempting to run/walk and even crawl if neccessary the 44 coastal path miles from Lizard Point to Lands End between dawn and dusk on the 28th June 2008. Friends and colleagues will know that I do a bit of running in my spare time (when I'm not injured!), but I have never run further than about 14 miles in the last 15 years : so this could be a real shock to my system!

However, any discomfort and pain that I may encounter during this event will be nothing compared to what people could suffer if there weren't dedicated hospices like St Julias and Mt Edgecombe available to help them.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Cornwall Hospice Care 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.

So please sponsor me now!
