My running challenge started last year when a good friend's dad, Mr Alan Walters, sadly passed away in Jersey Hospice. I ran the Jersey Hospice half marathon with Josh Vautier in October of 2021. This inspired me to challenge myself. Next year I am turning 50 and I wanted to set myself a goal. 

In our life time we will all know someone who will need support with a life long illness or end of life care. 

Jersey Hospice Care is a specialist palliative care service and the island’s only hospice, providing holistic care for patients with any life limiting condition. Jersey Hospice Care is an independent charity and makes no charge to patients. It costs over £20,000 a day to run the charity’s services. Funding for their care services is thanks to the generosity of Islanders.They are there for the community because of the community. Without our continued support and generous donations this wouldn’t be possible.

Many thanks,

Karl Fitzpatrick ( thanks for donating)
