St Johns Hospice is a local charity which provides free palliative care to patients with life shortening conditions. Our services cover a population area of 250,000 people in North Lancashire, South Lakes and parts of North Yorkshire. We have been caring for our community every minute of every day since 1986.

In April 2023 I lost a very dear friend who along with his wife supported me through some of the toughest times in my life. He spent his final days in St John’s Hospice where he received the most amazing care. In his memory I want to do this trek so I can support the Hospice in continuing the wonderful care and support they give.
