When we were deployed to Afghanistan in 2012 my Dad was admitted to St John’s Hospice. They took excellent care of him at the time and were so supportive to us all after he was gone. We want to support them over this period when fundraising is at an all time low. We’ve decided to do 30,000 steps between us on the day rather than the 5,000 each. Bella and Charlie will be participating by encouraging us and joining in when they can for their Grandad that they sadly never got to meet. 

St Johns Hospice provides care completely free of charge to over 4,000 patients and their families each year, costing almost £7 million. St Johns Hospice aspires to a time when every individual can approach death informed, supported and free of pain; a time when the needs of the individual, and of those close to them, are met with personalised care at the end of life. They respect the wishes of each individual and promote personal choice by ensuring they are aware of the options available to them for treatment and care at all stages of their illness. Thank you for visiting our page and supporting the Hospice.
