St Columba’s Hospice Care provides palliative and end-of-life care for people with life-limiting illnesses and their families which is even more critical in these challenging times. They’re an independent charity at the heart of our local community and have been offering free, flexible and person-centred care and support to our patients and their families for over 40 years. Mum enjoyed working in the charity shop every Saturday morning for years,a labour of love that kept her active in the local community.

Please be aware that your donation will also fund some of the costs of the event and that I would not be able to complete it without your generous support.(You can keep an eye on my training through the Strava logs below😅).

 You can find out more about all of their services and the work they’re doing across Edinburgh and the Lothians by visiting the website www.stcolumbashospice.org.uk.
