Story
April 3rd this year will be the 10th anniversary of my wonderful mother, Marianne Alty, sadly passing away from Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma.
To honour this, I will be running a half marathon on the anniversary with the intention of raising as much money as possible for Sobell House Hospice.
Sobell House Hospice are a charity that my family and I value very highly due to the amazing and selfless end of life care that the staff there provided to my mother. I fondly remember her time in there, she was able to enjoy her last days doing activities such as drawing and painting in the arts room and particularly enjoyed receiving massages!
Sobell House provide palliative care to 3000 people from Oxfordshire each year and I know our family won’t have been alone in having such a positive experience in trying times.
Any donation at all will be greatly appreciated and you will be able to track my progress as I train for April 3rd via the Strava app on which I am called ‘Tom Alty’.
