Story
Four years ago, me and 3 other family members climbed Snowdon,
raising just over £1000 for St Luke’s hospice. St Luke’s offered my good friend, Chez, lots of support as she battled her cancer over many months.
My son, William has decided he too would like to raise money
for St. Luke’s by climbing Snowdon – but this time at home. We have calculated how many flights of stairs he needs to climb and on the first weekend of July he will attempt the 390 flights.
He would love it if you could sponsor him, he thinks he will be able to raise £50 but I have set the target at double that as I am sure we
can get him to £100 for this amazing hospice.
Since 1988, St Luke’s has been providing palliative care to local people, supporting them in ways which go beyond the scope and funding of the NHS. Last year we supported over 1,000 local people with a huge range of support from end of life care on our ward to supporting carers, and from helping children cope with grief to helping patients return to work after an illness. We are a charity and provide all our care for free, so we rely on the generosity and commitment of our supporters to raise more than 80% of our costs.
