I did my first ever half marathon last year, and didn't ask for sponsorship then because I wasn't sure I'd get to the finish! This will be my second half marathon, and I'm feeling much more positive. It would be great if you could sponsor me, as an extra incentive, and because the Hospice is such a great cause.

The Hospice message is:

By entering our half marathon, you can help us collectively raise £30,000 to fund up to 140 vital palliative care nursing visits for patients receiving end of life care at home.

Our Hospice at Home service enables people with life limiting illnesses to receive expert nursing care and support in the comfort of their own home in their final days. Supporting a patient’s wish to live out their final days in a place of their choosing has a multitude of benefits for the patient and their loved ones, making it a vital option for end of life care.
