Story

I’ve decided to raise money for charities which have supported Claire and our family during her fight with cancer, and since her passing

I’m setting out over 4 quarters to raise money for 4 different charities and run over 400 miles over the year.

Each quarter I will focus on a specific charity along the way.

Willen Hospice

https://www.willen-hospice.org.uk

Willen is a local hospice that was supporting Claire in the later phases of her journey, providing care and support at home and then residential support during her final weeks.

Willen Hospice’s care touches thousands of local people every year, giving comfort, ease pain and reduce anxiety for patients and their loved ones.

Every pound given makes a difference - as it enables us to do more for more people across Milton Keynes when and where they need us. We receive less than a quarter of our funding from the NHS, which means the rest is donated or fundraised for by amazing local people. Which is why your support is so important and so appreciated – from everyone we help, thank you.
