Tom's fundraiser for Wigan and Leigh Hospice

Tom Pennington is raising money for Wigan and Leigh Hospice

Sahara Desert Trek · 4 November 2026 · Start fundraising for this event

We provide specialist end-of-life care, and a wide range of support services, to over 1,200 people who are living with a life-limiting illness in the Wigan Borough. Many patients are cared for in their own homes, although we also care for people living in care homes and in our In-Patient Unit.

Story

I’m taking on the Sahara Desert Trek in support of Wigan & Leigh Hospice.

As someone from an ex-military background, I’ve gone from a life of being outdoors, pushing limits, and operating in challenging environments to a more office-based role. This challenge is a chance to step back into that discomfort, test myself again, and do it for a cause that truly matters.

Wigan & Leigh Hospice provides incredible care and support to people and families during the most difficult times. If this trek can help raise even a small amount to support their work, every step will be worth it.
