Lyn's wing walk fundraiser for St Barnabas House

Wing Walk in Cirencester · 7 June 2025
I had been a fundraiser for St Barnabas House for many years, but after raising over £7,000 by completing the South Downs Marathon Trek in September 2023, (just 10 days after the loss of my sister Jan), I decided to switch to volunteering.
Since then it has been a real privilege to have attended many events with St Barnabas and Chestnut Tree House. I have enjoyed meeting so many amazing people, and I still plan to continue as a volunteer as often as I can.
However, the draw to do another fundraiser has been strong, but this time it had to be something that was completely out of my comfort zone. This 'Wing Walk' will be just that for me, in fact the word 'terrified' comes to mind 😱.
St Barnabas House is a charity based hospice in Worthing which provides palliative and end of life care to adults with life-limiting illnesses. They believe everyone facing life-limiting illness and their families should receive the care and support they deserve. I found this to be so true, for in my own darkest moments, they were there. They reached out to me and my family in any way they could, they genuinely cared. It is something that I personally will NEVER forget.
Now, more than ever, they need OUR support to ensure that they will be there for many other families, when needed, in the future...
Thank you for your support
Lyn 💛 xx
