Join Betty and Keira on the 22nd December 2024 as they run 5k in Herefords Santa Run.

Betty and Keira along with hundreds of runners will be dressed as Santa Claus with the aim of spreading festive cheer throughout the city centre and raising funds for a very worthy cause…St Micheal’s Hospice.

We have all known someone in our lives who has had the support of St Micheal’s hospice and Betty and Keira want to try to personally say thank you by raising funds to support all the good this incredible charity does every single day!  

As a charity, St Micheal’s Hospice in Hereford need to raise over £5.8 million a year to ensure they can continue to provide their care and support for free. 74% of this funding comes from the local community through donations and fundraising events.

Care and support is provided by a  multi-disciplinary team including doctors, nurses, physiotherapists, occupational therapists, complementary therapists, social workers, chaplains and counsellors.

Specialist Hospice staff work together and often in partnership with the NHS to relieve patients’ symptoms, control their pain and help them to live well until the end of life.

St Micheal’s Hospice provide Inpatient services, hospice daycare and support for patients in a range of settings, including their homes. They are also there to ensure loved ones have access to the appropriate care and support they need to cope with the complex feelings and lifestyle changes caused by a terminal illness.

St Michael’s Hospice provides all its care free of charge to patients, their families and carers. This care is made possible by supporters taking part in fundraising events, playing our lottery, shopping at our retail outlets, making charitable donations and leaving gifts in their wills.

So if you are feeling generous in the jolliest of seasons. Please donate anything you can, be it a penny or a pound! Please help Betty and Keira hit their goal and help those who really need it with the care and support of such an incredible charity!

It will make our Christmas!!
