A group of us from Menzies LLP London Office are training to run the Hackney Half Marathon on May 18th, in aid of St Joseph’s Hospice - our chosen local charity of the year 2025.

St Joseph's Hospice opened in Hackney in 1905, and since then has been caring for and supporting people affected by serious illness in eight London boroughs. They work to improve the quality of life of more than 2,100 patients with life-limiting conditions each year, helping them live life to the full, to the very last.

They have to raise £16,000 each day to keep their vital services running and available to the 2.2 million people in their diverse community, so every penny raised for the hospice is really important and very much appreciated.
