Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I have decided to complete the challenge of running '5K a day' for a year in aid of the Nottinghamshire Hospice for a few reasons.

1.  I currently donate profit as photographer to them and i was looking for another way to help the Hospice raise funds.

2. All the services offered by the Hospice are free, i want to help keep it that way.

3. It gives me a goal as without it running is just getting from one end to the other faster than walking!

Nottinghamshire Hospice offers a free service to patients and their loved ones which aims to take care of not only the physical needs of patients but also values their emotional, spiritual and social needs. They provide support to families and close friends, both during the illness and in bereavement.

All services are provided free of charge and offered regardless of age, gender, ethnic origin or religion. Each year they provide over 7,000 Day Therapy places for patients with a life limiting illness and their families through Day Therapy facility and deliver over 36,000 hours of care through the Hospice at Home service.
