About The Kirkwood

Through thick and thin, giant hugs and bottomless mugs, The Kirkwood Support Life for anyone affected by a life limiting illness. They focus on what matters to people. They take time to understand their needs and aspirations. And they work tirelessly to support them to achieve their goals.

Walking cures everything! I have walked lots this year, most of you will know why. A few weeks ago I met a couple out walking - twice. We quickly exchanged pleasantries but in no time at all we were discussing the big issues….. life and death. Helen shared her story and they told me about the Kirkwood SummerChallenge. They planned to walk the Kirklees Way, 74 miles around tne boundary of our Local Authority, all to raise funds for Kirkwood our local Hospice. They invited me to join… so here I am fully committed and hoping for your support
