I am running with my parents, my husband, my son and my nephew. We are running memory of my beautiful sister, Anna.

She spent her last days in Katharine House Hospice, surrounded by her family. She was extremely well looked after and cared for. The staff are simply amazing ❤️ I am running for the fabulous facility and staff that provide our loved ones with a dignified, caring end of life support. I still visit Katharine House Hospice as a place of comfort, knowing how well my sister was taken care of.

Absolutely any donation amount will be gratefully received. If you are thinking of writing me a Christmas card - I’d much rather that you save the card/paper and donate £1 in the pot! Lots of Love and thank you xx

All our services are completely free to patients, and we are heavily dependent on donations and support from the community to help raise the £5.3 million needed each year to run the hospice. This equates to £14,500 a day! We're aiming for this year's Santa Fun Run to pay for Christmas Day at the hospice.

Your fundraising will not only help to fund the clinical costs at the

hospice, but also all the extra services that make it such a special

place – from bereavement support to art therapies, from relaxation

class to the hospice food and so much more.

Thank you from everyone at Katharine House Hospice for supporting

the Santa Fun Run this year.
