My Story

On Saturday 20 June, I will be taking in The Sleep Walk - an 8 mile coastal walk through Torquay and Paignton to raise funds for Rowcroft Hospice - an independent charity that provides expert end-of-life care and support to people in our community with life-limiting illnesses.

Now, just so you know, if you sponsor me, your donation will not be paying for me to have a fantastic evening out. This is because the event costs are covered by participants like me. This means that every penny of all donations will go straight towards helping Rowcroft continue their amazing work.

None of us know if we, or our loved ones, will one day need the comfort and support Rowcroft offers, but your donation will help make sure Rowcroft is there for anyone who needs them in the future, enabling more families to share precious final moments together.

If you could spare even a small amount, to support me in raising funds for Rowcroft Hospice, I would be incredibly grateful! Here are a few examples of what your generosity could help fund.

* 5 GBP could pay for beautiful spring bulbs for the hospice gardens, to bloom and be enjoyed by patients and visitors who are relaxing in our grounds.

* 10 GBP could pay for fuel for a Rowcroft car, enabling one of our specialist nurses to visit patients in their own homes across South Devon, offering expert care and support.

* 27 GBP could pay for an hour of care for a patient with complex needs in our specialist Inpatient Unit.

* £50 could provide vital medical supplies for patients, including medications or specialised equipment, ensuring that patients receive the best care possible.

Thank you so much!
