Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.

We are a team that work at St Elizabeth Hospice and we are taking part in the Whole Hog - a 5 mile muddy obstacle course. We are made up of Christine, Laura, Kerri, Kelly, Rachel, Cath, Debbie and Martin. AKA The Hospice GOATs! (Greatest Of All Time!)

Why are we doing this?

We all felt it would be a fun challenge to do as a group and encouraged each other to go for it! We all feel passionately about the work the hospice does and are keen to give a little bit back by raising some money for the hospice while facing the personal challenge that the Whole Hog will be for each of us.

It costs £12.9 million to run the hospice and 70% of this comes from fundraising and retail.

Other reasons for doing it?

"Because I was pressurised into it by Kelly! And because I love a mud facial!" - Kerri

"Because I want to be able to push myself" - Kelly

"It looks like fun!" - Martin

"Seeing the challenges faced by the Zest young adults and their families every day, it feels fitting to challenge myself by doing the Whole Hog, while raising money to continue offering the support that is desperately needed" - Cath

"I like to be active, and I like a challenge, and if I can do these while raising money for the essential work the hospice does then all the better!" - Christine
