Over the last 2 years, Uncle Graham, Auntie Lynda and Uncle Mark (Doc) have all sadly lost their battle with cancer. Many are fighting this awful disease, so for my first half marathon, I would like to raise as much as I possibly can for this very worthy charity.

Hospice care offers reassurance of round-the-clock expert care, in a friendly, welcoming environment for those who are living through a life limiting illness.

From managing someone's pain, to looking after their emotional, spiritual and social needs, hospice care supports the whole person, helping them to live their life to the full.
