Brighton Marathon 2025 · 6 April 2025 ·

Wisdom Hospice Charity supports the work of the only adult hospice serving Medway and Swale in Kent. It makes an annual grant to Medway Community Healthcare of £600,000 towards hospice running costs. In addition it provides extra equipment and facilities that fall outside the MCH budget.

Story

Myself & Lisa met and work alongside each other at Avenue Tennis in Gillingham. Lisa is a personal trainer and i work on the food and beverage team. We have both entered the Brighton Marathon individually as keen runners but have decided this is a great opportunity to raise funds for a very worthy local charity.

Wisdom hospice holds a special place in my heart after the support they gave my family in the lead up to and after losing my beautiful Mum 4 years ago.

The Hospice's aim is to help improve the quality of life for patients and their families at any stage of the patient's illness. Most of the patients seen by the service have advanced cancer, but they also support many with other illnesses.

They provide palliative care in the comfort of patients homes as well as advice and support including respite care and complementary therapies.

We are proud to be taking on the challenge of Brighton Marathon 2025 and hope that by doing so we can raise awareness and funds for this amazing charity.
