Hello everyone, it's that time of year again! This Saturday I will be participating in the Star Walk (formally Midnight Walk), a ten mile walk around Luton raising money for the wonderful Keech Hospice. The work that they do, day in, day out is amazing but unfortunately it doesn't come cheap, so they need all the help they can get.
"In 2012/13 it will cost over £5m to provide all the patient care and support services across both the adults and children’s services." - Sourced from Keech Hospice website, http://www.keech.org.uk/About+us/how_we_use_our_funds
I pledge to raise money for the Hospice because I want to be able to help in any way I can, as they helped my grandad in his final days. Any amount of money you can donate will help me acheive this goal.
Also, Jake Wood aka Max Branning from Eastenders will be in attendance =] On the Keech website he said
‘Just like you, I want to personally help Keech raise vital funding to deliver even more great work in your community. Keech supports our families, our friends and our communities, especially when it is most needed. But Keech needs you and I to help it meet its costs in providing this special care and can’t do it without us!
I will be supporting the Star Walk and waiting to give everyone a big send-off on the night, so why not join me for a great night out? Sign-up with all your mates too and together we’ll make a HUGE difference for Keech Hospice Care.'
This September will be my third walk for the Hospice (My grandad Tommy passed away in 2011) and I would really love it to be third time lucky and reach my goal of £100! In a competitive sense I logged my walk last year and would love to try and beat my time! =]
