My name is Rowan and myself and my mum are doing this walk for my dad. My dad was diagnosed with 3 different cancers in mid January. From then he was in hospital then later moved to St Catherine’s where he passed on the 7th March 2025 just two days before his 48th birthday. My dad fought until the end and was so strong. Although he was in pain he still smiled and made us all laugh ♥️We miss him so much. The hospice were truly amazing and we can’t thank them enough. Please help and donate to this truly loving hospice. Thank you so much. Rowan ♥️

St Catherine’s cares for patients and families across Chorley, Preston and South Ribble who are affected by life-shortening conditions like cancer, motor neurone disease and heart failure.

Our specialised care is here to help people enjoy the best possible quality of life, to the end of life. We work with patients and their loved ones at the hospice and in their own homes to help them achieve what is important to them in the time they have.

We work creatively and collaboratively with other organisations, businesses, charities and local people to meet the needs of patients and their loved ones.

Our values are caring, compassionate and committed.
