Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

My amazing dad spent his last days being cared for by the wonderful staff of St Roccos Hospice. The running costs of the hospice are 80% funded by charitable donations. Im told the daily running cost of the hospice is approximately £5500 and my lovely dad wanted us to raise this amount as a thank you. 

My dads wife Jacquie and her sister Suzanne also have another connection with the hospice, as St Roccos cared for their own father the gorgeous George Darcy who we lost last year. 

The hospice provides a pleasant environment for patients and family alike, to spend precious time together. The staff and volunteers are so caring and hard working and there is lots of lovely outdoor space. 

As well as the just giving page we will be looking to do other fundraising events when circumstances allow. We were sadly unable to do the colour run last year as it was rained off so this will probably be first on our list! And if you would like to join us the more the merrier. 

Please give whatever you feel you can, in these uncertain times any amount however big or small will be so greatly appreciated.
