David Lloyd Hull Racquet Event, 17 September 2023
In memory of Kevin Hamson
Instead of gifts, asking for a donation to the hospice means that you will be supporting local families when they need it most.

Story

We are running a racquet tournament at David Lloyd Club Hull in memory of our friend Kevin (Kev) who sadly lost his battle with cancer this year. Kev loved his tennis and had some favourite quotes such as "you need to go to spec savers" reference to line calls. It seems appropriate to celebrate Kev's life on the courts he loved to play tennis on, with the people he loved to play with. We are raising funds for Dove House Hospice where Kev spent his last few hours with his loving wife Alison and close family.

Dove House Hospice cares for people living with a terminal illness in Hull and East Yorkshire. A big part of what the hospice does is to support friends and family, both throughout an illness and after their loved one has died.

Thank you for choosing to celebrate Kev's life while raising funds for Dove House!

By celebrating with us, you will be making a difference to the lives of local people, ensuring that more families can create memories together, and add light to the darkest of days.

Every pound you raise will add life to days when days cant be added to life, helping to deliver the best possible care when there is no cure.
