Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.
I've decided to run the Reading Half for the Duchess Of Kent House Charity. They are the registered charity connected to the Duchess of Kent Hospice in Reading. They treat adult patients with cancer and other life-shortening diseases, at no charge according to need, providing out-patient, in-patient and day therapy services, which includes respite care and symptom control.
The money given to them by the NHS only goes so far so the charity seeks to support them in the financing of the provision of specialist services. The money they provide also goes towards the re-opening of beds that have been lost from funding shortfalls.
Please give generously for a well deserving charity - see my running as the excuse not the reason to sponsor them rather than me.
Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.
Thank you for your support.
