Story

A team consisting of Alan Robson, Sarah Jopling and Louise Kenyon from Seymour Civil Engineering have decided to run the Great North Run this year to support Alice House Hospice.  Giving back into the communities in which we work is of the upmost importance to us. We choose to run for this local charity having seen the amazing work that Alice House has delivered over the years and what a special place it is. Due to the pandemic and the limited funded raising events that have been able to take place, we felt strongly we wanted to partake in such an event as soon as we could.

Alice House Hospice was founded in 1980 by local mum of four, Alice Bendle. Following a routine hospital operation doctors told her that she might die. The experience left her passionate about making sure that anybody facing a life-limiting illness would never be alone or in pain again. Her hard work and determination, and that of those involved over the past four decades, means that today we have access to hospice care 365 days a year. This costs money and your sponsorship will make a world of difference to those that need it ensuring compassion, dignity, companionship at a time when it is needed the most, touching the lives of many and their families.

Thank you for your support!
