It's time to have some festive fun and raise much-needed funds for Farleigh Hospice.

Your Reindeer Run can be a gentle jog around a hall or a full-on festive sprint across the school field – every dash will make a difference.

All the hospice asks is that each Reindeer Run aims to raise £2 per child.

£100 could help pay for four hours of family support counselling for patients and families facing a life-limiting illness.

£250 could go towards the cost of a workshop for bereaved children and their families.

£500 could help to fund 10 home visits from our community care team.

By taking part and raising funds, you’ll be helping us provide compassionate care and support to people across mid Essex facing life-limiting illness or bereavement.
