Story
UKDOCKS Marine Services are supporting Gary Wilson and Charlie Barley in their efforts to raise sponsorship for ST Barnabas Hospice.
They will be cycling from Whitehaven to Newcastle (West Coast to East Coast) along the C2C route. A 140-mile journey, with about a 10,000 feet ascent, this they intend to complete over 3 days starting on the 17th September 2015.
For those that are not aware Charlie’s younger sister passed away at ST Barnabas Hospice on the 01st September 2014, after a long battle with cancer. Although she was only in the Hospice for a short time, she received fantastic palliative care and we will be supporting Charlie and Gary in their efforts to raise as much money as possible on this anniversary.
We are grateful for any donations no matter how small and these can be given through this website or donating via the sponsorship forms held by Gary in the Northern Office (South Shields) or Charlie in the South Office (Gosport).
This is Charlie’s way of saying thank you to this Hospice for the palliative care they gave, and your contributions will go a long way in helping this organisation in maintaining the great care it gives.
