Story
In September we will be taking part in the “Canoe/Climb/Conquer - Peak District Challenge” where we will embark on a 2km canoe or raft across a reservoir, followed by a 16km hike through scenic landscapes, culminating in a daring 100ft abseil all within 12 hours - to raise money for Lindsey Lodge Hospice and Healthcare.
As you may have seen on the national news, hospices are under great financial strain - especially in light of the rapidly rising costs of living at the moment. Some have been forced to close beds and lose staff in order to continue to provide any level of service. Currently appproximately 20-30% of hospice funding is provided by the uk government (the exact amount varies depending on area). The remaining 70-80% needs to be raised by the hospice themselves.
Lindsey Lodge Hospice offers a wide range of inpatient and daycare services to patients with terminal illness, and their families. The demand for these services is constantly growing. Without your help they would be unable to continue to provide this support to the people who need it
Please can you sponsor us to enable their essential, life changing work to continue? Every single penny is appreciated - and good luck wishes for this big challenge are welcome too!
Thank you!!!!
