Story

£20 could fund resources for our Complementary Therapies team, for example essential oils, to enable them to offer a range of treatments for patients. Complementary therapies can help patients feel calmer, more relaxed and in some cases relieve symptoms.

£50 could pay for resources for our Day Service team to run Memory Lane workshops, supporting patients to create memory boxes for their loved ones.

£100 could pay for a full day of our patient transport service, so that patients can get to and from their hospice appointments without charge or worry.

We are doing a 70 mile night time cycle from sunset to sunrise from Brampton to Sunderland to finish at Jen Deighton Hairdressing.

Jen tragically lost her life to cancer earlier this year. She was an inspiring lass, loved by many and sadly missed. She loved her bike rides and this cycle goes along one of her favourite routes. With this being a night ride under stars, Jen will be looking down on us and saying "go on you class lot"
