Story
During 2022, Eden Housing Association and Hospice at Home Carlisle and North Lakeland both celebrate their 25th birthdays.
To mark this memorable milestone, staff at EHA have pledged to walk 25 miles for 25 years to raise money for a great cause.
On Saturday 17 September 2022, we will set off to walk the mammoth 20 mile 'Ullswater Way', taking in the extra Dalemain/Pooley Bridge 5 mile loop, making the route a total of 25 miles long.
Our goal is to raise £1,000 which will enable Hospice at Home to provide 40 hours of Pre and Post Bereavement Support.
Hospice at Home provides high quality care and support for adults who have palliative and end of life care needs, whilst also supporting their families and carers. As a charity they rely on the kindness and generosity of our local community. Although they receive some funding from the NHS, they need to raise over 80% of its running costs in order to ensure that this vital help is available when needed and remains free of charge to patients and their families. With your support we will be able to help them provide 'Local Care for Local People' - thank you.
