Andrew's fundraiser for St Luke's - Sheffield's Hospice

Sheffield 10K · 28 September 2025 · Start fundraising for this event
Thank you for visiting my JustGiving page!
I am excited to share that I will be participating in the Sheffield 10K on September 28, 2025, to support St Luke's - Sheffield's Hospice. This incredible charity provides compassionate care and support to individuals and families facing life-limiting illnesses. Their work is vital, ensuring that no one has to face this journey alone.
“I have always loved running and used it for various reasons, including fitness and
mental health,” he says.
“Up to December 2021 I was extremely fit and healthy and was running five or six
times a week, comfortably entering and completing half marathons.
“However, in the last three years I have really struggled with my running - even
running a Park Run 5k is extremely hard going, due to a long-term chronic illness.”
Now, though, Andy is back in training and looking forward to taking on the Sheffield
10k challenge on September 28.
“In order to provide me with additional motivation and raise money and awareness
for the incredible St Luke’s Hospice, I have given myself a target of running the
whole of the Sheffield 10k without stopping,” he says.
“This may not seem much of a big challenge to some but to me this - I do know this
is an achievable goal thanks to the fabulous help and support of running friends and
work colleagues with my 16 weeks training plan.
“I know so many families that have had to use the facilities that St Luke’s offers and
through organising fundraising events at the University, I have seen first-hand the
incredible professional services the hospice provides.”
