Story

Karen and Tim will be walking from Fratton Park to the Amex in March to raise money for St Barnabas Hospice, in memory of our dearest friend and brother in law who passed away July 30th 2023, after losing his courageous fight against cancer. It's our way of saying thank you to St. Barnabas for the help and support given to Dave and the family at a very sad time.

Dave was a lifelong Portsmouth supporter, when he moved to Sussex he became a season ticket holder for Brighton. We thought it would be a fitting tribute to walk between the two grounds, in Dave's memory and raise money for St Barnabas House.

St Barnabas House is a charity based in Worthing which provides palliative and end of life care to adults with life-limiting illnesses.

We believe everyone facing life-limiting illness should receive the care and support they deserve. Our mission is to provide dignity, comfort and choice for adults who need specialised, supportive care.

Your generous support helped to provide specialist supportive care for 1,786 local people and their families at the hospice and in the comfort of their own homes last year.
