In memory of Gareth
Celebrate the memory of a loved one this October as you walk 10k beneath the stars while raising vital funds to help ensure no one faces death or grief alone.

Story

Gareth sadly lost his fight for life in May this year - we shared a love of parkrun and running. Gareth loved parkrun, running, football and many other things and was very involved in lots of charity work. He was loved by everyone who knew him. Please help us to raise money to support Sue Ryder in their very important work.

Sue Ryder Starlight Hike is a series of 5k or 10k walks taking place in various locations around the country this October. They provide an opportunity to get together with family and friends under the stars to remember and celebrate the life of someone special and help ensure no one faces death or grief alone.

£20 could pay for a patient’s meals for the day in one of our hospices. We always do our best to cater for someone’s individual preferences and dietary requirements.

£25 could fund an hour of expert care, so our Sue Ryder doctors and nurses can help manage patients’ pain and symptoms.

£40 could provide our personalised text support service Sue Ryder Grief Coach to someone who is grieving for a year, as well as gentle coaching for friends and family who want to support them.
