In memory of my beautiful sister, I will be getting my trainers on in June to raise funds for the incredible Barnsley Hospice 🧡. I will never forget the compassion and care they showed Hannah and our family in her final weeks 🤍💫.

As a charity, the hospice could not do this without the support of its local community.

Councillor James Higginbottom, Cabinet spokesperson for Environment and Highways, said: “It’s fantastic to have Barnsley Hospice on board as our official charitable partner.

“They have supported so many of our residents since opening their doors for the first time in 1994, but they still need to fundraise £3.5m each year to provide their vital services for the people of Barnsley.

“I’m hoping to see as many runners as possible donning the hospice orange for the race and supporting this fantastic charity.”

Stephen Hall, Director of Human Resources and Organisational Development at Barnsley Hospice said: “It’s a real privilege to be chosen as the official charitable partner of the very first Barnsley 10k, and it’s a fantastic way to celebrate our 30th anniversary year.
