Story

He's at it again! Fred's willing to risk life and limb, and public safety, to raise money for a very worthy cause. He is racing in memory of our wonderful niece Caireen, who is missed by all who were lucky enough to know her. Please give generously.

At North Devon Hospice, our patients and their families are at the heart of everything we do. For over 40 years, we have been dedicated to providing compassionate care and support to those in the North Devon area affected by life-limiting illnesses. Last year alone, we cared for 3,000 patients and their loved ones, offering highly specialist care and support during the toughest of times. All our services are provided free of charge, ensuring that everyone can access the care they need without financial burden. With demand on our services increasing, we remain committed to ensuring that everyone who needs us receives the best possible care and support. It costs £6.2 million a year to run our hospice, and we rely on the generosity of our local community to continue our vital work. Your support makes a world of difference to those we care for.
