Story

Hi everyone,

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page for Foyle Hospice.

This September. I am walking The Camino de Santiago (also known as the Way of St. James) to raise funds for Foyle Hospice in memory of my Mum, Gwendoline Simpson, and in tribute to all the amazing services Foyle Hospice continue to provide for people living with cancer and other life-limiting conditions across Northern Ireland.

The Camino de Santiago is a network of pilgrimage routes leading to the shrine of the Apostle James in the cathedral of Santiago de Compostela in Galicia, Spain.

Over 5 weeks, I will cover over 500 miles on the route which runs from St. Jean-Pied-De-Port in France to Santiago de Compostela in Spain.

Please give what you can. Every penny will be donated to Foyle Hospice. Your donations will make a difference.

When you make a donation no matter how much, this will allow Foyle Hospice to deliver specialist palliative care services....

Day Therapy Services: £15

1 hour of care in IPU: £30

1 hour Healing Hearts counselling session for a grieving child or teen: £35

1 Home Care Visit: £78

IPU bed cost per 24 hours: £720

Thank you for your support for Foyle Hospice!
