Story

Thank you so much for finding time to visit our fundraising page for Dr Kershaw's Hospice, Royton.

We are raising money on behalf of our family and friends who have lost loved ones or whose lives have been affected by cancer.

We would also like to show appreciation for the wonderful care and support that the hospice provides.

 

*****Saturday 6th July 2013  - Lynne and Sarah will do their 5th Midnight Walk*****

By the end of 2012 we had raised £10278 for the Hospice in 4 years, and it was all thanks to your kind generosity.

 

We have raised our target to try and reach £11000 for 2013. If you can spare even just a small amount for this wonderful place we would be so grateful. 

 

*************Please help us reach our target ******************

Previous fundraising for Dr Kershaw’s 

Anybody who has done these in the past will tell you that they aren't as easy as they sound, but well worth the effort to raise lots of money for this wonderful cause!

 

Saturday 21st July 2012 - Lynne and Sarah completed their 4th Midnight Walk for Dr Kershaw's

Sunday 8 July – Dave completed the Manchester to Blackpool Bike Ride – 3 hours 50 mins

 

On 30th August 2011, Dave cycled a massive 1030 miles from Lands End to John O Groats, in 12 days. This is the furthest possible distance in the British Isles.

 

Sunday  10 July 2011  -  Dave completed the Manchester to Blackpool Bike Ride

Saturday 11 June 2011, Lynne and Sarah completed the Midnight Walk in 3 hours and 8 minutes with no blisters either!

Sunday 4th July 2010, Dave completed the 60 mile Manchester to Blackpool Bike Ride in just under 3 and a half hours on a very windy/rainy day! 

Saturday 5th June 2010, Lynne and Sarah completed the 13.1 miles Midnight walk in 3 hours 32 minutes - so  half an hour quicker than last time!

Sunday 13th December 2009, Lynne and Sarah did the 5k Santa Run at Alexandra Park,Oldham dressed as Santa Claus. Even though it was the week before Christmas it was a lovely sunny day and great fun! 

Sunday 12th July 2009, Dave cycled a gruelling 60 miles on the Manchester to Blackpool Bike Ride.  

Saturday June 20th 2009 at midnight, Lynne and her niece Sarah walked for 13.1 miles to raise money for this very worthwhile cause.  We arrived at the finish line at 4.03 am.  

 

 We would like to say a 'massive' thank you to everyone who has donated and thank you so much for your generosity and your good wishes.

 

If you are able to spare just a pound then please, please donate to this wonderful hospice, because no matter how small the amount, it will be massively appreciated and every single penny counts.With current running costs of the hospice standing at £1.75m per year (that's around £4700 per day)  the hospice are extremely grateful of every contribution made. 

 

Thank you so much!  Lynne, Dave and Sarah xx
