Camino De Santiago · 10 October 2025

Trek across the green rolling landscapes of rural Galicia, meet fellow trekkers and even pilgrims, discover local traditions and enjoy the unique atmosphere – today the Camino is more than a pilgrimage but a remarkable journey and unique experience.

Story

Would any family, friends, acquaintances, businesses like to sponsor me please? I’’ve decided to give myself a personal challenge by taking part in a trek called the Camino De Santiago Trek, it’s 110 km (70 miles) over 5 days in October of next year. All proceeds raised by myself and others taking part will go to St John’s Hospice (SJH). Our local hospice in Lancaster provides free palliative care to patients with life shortening conditions throughout North Lancashire, Sth Lakes and parts of North Yorkshire. It costs over a staggering 5 million a year to run the hospice , with only 1/3 being provided by Government funding. The remaining 2/3 must be raised through fundraising and donations from supporters and the local community.

By supporting St John's Hospice you are directly supporting our community when they need us the most so any donations made via the sponsorship of my Trek would be most gratefully appreciated.

Sponsoring is as simple as just clicking on the attached link and following the instructions.

On behalf of St. John’s Hospice please accept my thanks for your generosity.
