Raising money for St Gemma's Hospice
In memory of Andy Dawson

St Gemma's Hospice is a local, independent charity providing the best possible care and support for people in Leeds with cancer and other life-threatening illnesses. We support patients and their families, both in the Hospice and in the community, at any stage of their illness.

Story

On the 9th of March, we sadly lost our Uncle, Andy to terminal cancer. He faced his illness with strength, courage, and dignity. He was an incredible man, and made a positive impact on all the lives he touched whether family, friends, teammates, colleagues or community.

During his final days, the care, compassion, and support provided by St Gemma’s Hospice in Leeds meant the world to both him and his family. The staff went above and beyond to make sure he was comfortable, treated with dignity, and surrounded by kindness at an incredibly difficult time. Their dedication gave our family precious moments together that we will always cherish.

In his memory, we are raising money for St Gemma’s Hospice by running the 2026 Rob Burrows Leeds Marathon and the 1/2 Marathon respectively, so they can continue providing the same outstanding care to other families facing the heartbreak of terminal illness. Every donation—no matter the size—will help them support patients and their loved ones when they need it most.

If you are able to donate or share this page, it would mean so much to our family. Thank you for helping us honour our Uncle’s memory and for supporting the incredible work that St Gemma’s Hospice does every day.
