Rossendale Hospice aim to 'make every moment count', often for those who only have a short time to live. So for those of us who are fortunate enough to still be able to take full advantage of every day, this is an opportunity to raise some money - doing something epic, to help bring a little light to those living through the darkest of days.

Life's too short not to get out there and make the most of of it  - hence the team name 'Say No To Slippers'.

Please note that whilst Rossendale Hospice is our main charity, 10% of the funds raised will be to support the work of Cool Earth, who work with local communities around the world on rainforest preservation and regeneration projects.

In addition to the above donations via JustGiving, we've got about another £1500 in cash donations to add to the total. So it looks like we did it! Thanks everyone!
