Raising money for

The Donna Louise Children's Hospice Trust

Charity Registration No. 1075597

The Donna Louise Children's Hospice Trust provides respite for children with life threatening conditions and support for the whole family at the hospice and in their own home. Our hospice called Treetops, is based in Trentham, on the outskirts of Stoke-on-Trent. Here we provide respite and end of life care for children from all over Staffordshire and South Cheshire that are between the ages of 0 and 19 years and have a life-threatening illness. We provide a safe, caring environment where children and families can truly feel at home.

A community nursing team provide respite and end of life care to children and families within their own homes.

Currently the Trust cares for 160 children from South Cheshire and Staffordshire. Its annual running costs of £2 million are obtained mainly from public donations.

My story

Thank you for visiting our fundraising page. We completed the challenge so please sponsor us.

22 brave souls risked life and limb on 4/5 July to raise money for the Donna Louise Children's Hospice. We started at 4.30 pm on Saturday at Ben Nevis with the aim of completing the Three Peaks Challenge which is to climb Ben Nevis, Scafell Pike and Snowdon within 24 hours. It’s only walking 23 miles with 10,400 feet of climb and driving 500 miles! We endured heat, heavy rain, gales and thick cloud but survived. Three teams took part, 12 from St Modwen / The Trentham Estate, 4 from Prosurv Consult and 6 from Halcrow Yolles.

SUCCESS! All 4 from Prosurv team and one of the Halcrow team completed the whole challenge within 24 hours. 4 more from Halcrow and 3 of the St. Modwen/Trentham team reached the top of Snowdon in 24 hours with 3 others within a few minutes. Virtually all of us finished within 27 hours.

Our final team of 6 from Wragge & Co are doing the challenge on 14 / 15 August.

We done our bit so please can you make it worth our while. Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Donna Louise Trust 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 us now!
