    Is 2024 your year to rise to the challenge, make your mark, or even conquer your fears?

    You could be one of our wonderful fundraisers who will be supporting our patients living with a life-limiting illness, along with their families.

    You could turn your new hobby into a way to help others or make your resolution a reason to raise funds. Are you motivated to move more or looking to conquer a personal challenge?

    Our fantastic fundraisers play a huge part in the life of the Hospice and we really couldn’t do it without them.
