Story

We are taking part in the Starlight Hike this year - walking under the stars to help make sure more people get the expert care and support they deserve at the end of their life .

The Sue Ryder Fund Raising Team 2026 includes Sam Rowden, Tracey Fox , Gary Rowden, Phil Fox , Finn Rowden, Grace Taylor, Ann Jones & Amanda Brewer.

This Charity is very close to our hearts as we know first hand how amazing Sue Ryder Hospice care is , having looked after our girl Deb and my dad Mick in the final weeks of their lives. We want to continue to support the incredible work Sue Ryder does for those that need it most as they travel on their end of life journey.

Sue Ryder believes how we die matters. Their nurses, doctors and bereavement specialists support people through terminal illness, death and grief - but too many still aren’t getting the care they need. That isn’t right, and I want to help change it.

Last year, Sue Ryder delivered more than 655,000 hours of expert care. Every second was made possible by people who chose to get involved.

If you’re able to sponsor me, you’ll be helping make every step count — so more people can get the expert care and support they deserve when it matters most. Thank you so much for supporting me.
