We fund specialist palliative care to support patients in our community

Story

On 16th October 2021, I will be challenging myself to complete 24 Crossfit workouts in 24 hours. With the amazing support of the coaches and members at Complete Active gym, Mudeford Quay, we will be doing the workouts alongside a 24 hour rowathon in order to raise money for Macmillan Caring Locally. 

Macmillan Caring Locally is an incredible specialist palliative care charity that I am honoured to work for and we are fundraising for a much-needed new "Mac Unit" hospice through our capital appeal, Brick by Brick. The money raised from this challenge will help to fund the rehabilitation gym at the new hospice.

The "Mac Unit" is such a special place and I am priviledged to have witnessed the incredible love and support that is abundant within the unit. It is truly humbling to see how the team at the hospice give everything they can to ensure that patients and their families are comfortable, given the best possible care and have what really matters to them in their precious final months, weeks and days. When your plans for the future are snatched away from you, the compassion, care and beautiful memories from the Mac Unit are what patients' loved ones always hold in their hearts.
