Dan's fundraiser for Julia's House - 5 Valleys Ultra

Dan Hawker is raising money for Julia's House

Team: Team fundraising for Julia's House 20 20 Challenge

5 Valleys Ultra · 27 September 2025

No parent expects to live longer than their child, but for many of the families we support, this is a reality. Julia's House, the Dorset & Wiltshire Children's Hospice charity provides frequent respite care for children and support for their families at home, in the community and at our hospice.

Story

This summer I've been invited to join the CEO of Julia’s House, Martin Edwards’ 20/20 challenge to help raise £100,000 for the charity. We will be taking part in the 5 Valleys Ultra, running 55k across the Lake District National Park and its uneven terrain.

More about Julia’s House…

Julia’s House provides frequent, flexible care for children with life-limited or life-threatening conditions to give their parents a much-needed break.

They have to raise 93% of the money the charity needs each year to run this vital service. Your kind sponsorship will make a life-changing difference to these families.
