Kent Downs 50 Ultra Challenge 2024 · 12 October 2024 ·

St. Luke’s Hospice provides compassionate care for people with life limiting, palliative and end of life care needs. The charity delivers individualised care to ensure dignity and to empower people to make the choices they want, from the moment they are diagnosed.

Story

Our dad passed away on 1st August. He was an incredibly brave man, having faced kidney failure and transplant 35 years ago, and more recently many skin cancers. It was these that over the past year spread into his body and his brain. St Luke’s provided his care at the end of his life, whilst he was at home there was no hesitation on their part to come out whenever we called, no matter what time of day. Raising money in his memory for St Luke’s will allow them to do the same for others.

We three are taking part in the St. Luke’s Sponsored Walk on 6th October and Emma walks ultra distances, taking part in the Kent Downs 50km on 12th October. She has already completed the Isle of Wight 106km and London to Brighton 100km this year. Her entry is already paid, so all money raised will go to St Luke’s. “Dad told me to keep on walking once, on a previous event - and I shall because I can, and won’t give up! He never did.”
