I have seen how friends and their families have benefitted from the amazing care and support provided by St Barnabas Hospice. I am running the Lincoln 10k for the Hospice as a mark of gratitude, and also in the knowledge that I (and possibly you) may one day need to call on their support in the future. What they offer is invaluable; physically and emotionally.

St Barnabas Hospice have lost around £2 million since the start of the coronavirus pandemic. In response, I am looking for 50 people to donate £10 each, but any money you can give to support me with this challenge, whether greater or lesser than this amount, would be so appreciated. You will be making a real difference to patients and families living with a life-limiting or terminal illness, ensuring St Barnabas can be there for them every day of the year. For example, every £14.02 raised will enable St Barnabas to provide one hour of specialist at-home care to a patient. Please give what you can.

Thank you. Dave Albans
