Historically hospitals have always relied on public support, even after the founding of the NHS; Hull and East Yorkshire (HEY) Hospitals are no different. Our mission as a charity is to raise money to help the Hull Royal Infirmary and Castle Hill Hospital do more to ensure every patient receives the best and most modern care possible. Your support will help provide additional specialist equipment and support services, as well as aid the transformation of spaces and facilities within the hospitals for patient and visitor comfort alike.

To help raise money for this great charity, I am taking on the challenge to run a minimum 5km/3.1 miles (in one go) each and every day throughout the year 2022 (a minimum 1825km/1131.5 miles).  Whilst it will be predominantly road running, I will use a treadmill if needs must (though I don't envisage this happening), and in the unfortunate circumstance that I am injured, ill or have to self-isolate (which is very plausible, given the current climate), I will roll the days over in to the start of 2023.  I will be personally donating 10p for every mile I run, once the challenge is complete.

This page is linked to my Strava account, so you can keep a track of my progress.

Thank you in advance for all your donations, no matter how big or small.  It all helps!!!!!
