Due to Covid 19 most charity events have been postponed which has left the hospice with a huge shortfall in their funds and they need your help. We all probably know someone that has needed the hospice at some point, whether it be for pain management or end of life care,whatever the need the hospice is always there to care for our loved ones. The hospice relies heavily on donations to keep running,which has been a real challenge during the past year.
As many of you will be aware ,I like to run, so with this in mind I thought about putting this to good use and raise a few pounds to help the hospice. On the 28th May I intend to run between all of the Eric Wright health centres which make up the East Lancs portfolio, this involves starting at Darwen then onto to Barbara Castle Way, Accrington Acorn,Accrington PALS,Rossendale, Bacup,St Peter's,Briercllife, Yarnspinners and finishing at Pendleside Hospice, this is approximately 40 miles. Even by my standards this is going to be a challenge, but one I am really looking forward to, sort of.
For every pound I raise Eric Wright will match fund so every pound really does count.Eric Wright has been set up as a charitable organisation and gives millions each year to all variety of local charities, most of which are often overlooked for the bigger, well known charities.
