Raising money for HCPT Group 539

London Marathon 2019 · 28 April 2019 ·
For the last two years I have had the privilege of being the Group Nurse for HCPT (Hosanna House and Children's Pilgrimage Trust) Group 539 and both weeks have left me with very special memories. I was introduced to the group by an old school friend who asked me if I would join them on their annual pilgrimage to Lourdes in France. Prior to this I had very little understanding of the work the charity did but I went with an open mind. Whilst with the group I came to understand just how significant the work HCPT does is and could see first hand the extraordinary impact it had on those involved, in particular the guests on the trip.
Since 1975 HCPT has offered life-changing summer pilgrimages to Lourdes for disabled and disadvantaged people of all ages. They will spend an inspiring week at Hossanna House, a charming and tranquil home-from-home in nearby Bartès. The house is fully adapted to suit the guests phsyical as well as emotional needs meaning the guests can benefit from a holiday that may not otherwise be available to them. This also means their loved ones at home can rest knowing they are in safe hands. Many of us can go away on with no worries but for those less fortunate than ourselves this could be their only chance to escape from their everyday routine.
However without financial support these trips would not be able to happen. Please help me reach my goal of raising £1500 for the wonderful HCPT group 539 and help support those who need it most.
