Story

Thanks for visiting our fundraising page!

A couple of months ago Phil had the great idea of doing the 10k Leeds run for St Gemmas.  Ok for Phil as he is a fairly keen runner, not so easy for Sophie as the last time she went running was at School in the '90s. Still - St Gemma's is such an amazing cause, and if this is what it takes to raise money for them - then this is what we will do.

Training has begun, and stoppped, and started again as its not long now! Sophie has the fancy running trainers (shopping - that's the easy part) and the training routine. Phil at least has the battered trainers of a proper runner (if nothing else), and a bit of optimism, persistent football ankle injury notwithstanding!

We are running in memory of Jan Ringwood who St Gemma's took such marvellous care of last winter.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor us: St Gemma's Hospice gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.

So please sponsor us now!
