Wigan and Leigh Hospice is marking 40 years of care and its visionary, Dr Surman, was from our very own Shevington surgery!

It is a charity which provides care and support to people who have been diagnosed with a life-limiting or terminal illness.

We have all been impacted, or known someone who has been impacted, by terminal illness in one way or another.

Mrs Gill Rigbye, a kind grandparent of school who is in her 30th year of volunteering for the charity, has teamed up with a parent, Anthony Crowder, to raise money for Wigan and Leigh Hospice.

Anthony will be running a 100 mile ultra marathon and has been given a maximum time of 32 hours to complete it!

Please support this amazing charity and Anthony by donating as much as you can.

A huge thank you for caring and showing your support.
