Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit Shelton Striders JustGiving page.

We are fundraising as a club for the brilliant Tree Tops Hospice, such a great cause on behalf of the club thanks everyone for your support. 

Treetops Hospice is a leading end-of-life care charity for Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire. Since 1983, we’ve opened our arms and our hearts to support many thousands of local people, and their families, through the most difficult time of their lives.

Our caring and dedicated team of 47 hospice at home nurses, 45 compassionate bereavement counsellors and wellbeing team members are working day and night for the people in our community. We’re so proud of the 34,000 hours of care they give each and every year.

We think it’s the little ones who need us more than anyone. The work we do to give our bereaved children a shoulder to lean on is so very important. And, with help, we’ll carry on giving them over 1,000 counselling sessions a year.

We can’t do all this without our amazing supporters. It costs £4.2m each year to run Treetops and we need your support now more than ever. It’s a big number and we’re grateful for every single penny you donate.

 

Together, let’s make every day count.
