Hi all. Wanted to share with you that I'm doing the Night Strider Walk on 10th of July. It's for women only and it's 9-12pm at Taunton Racecourse. The idea is to walk or run as many laps as possible round the race course within the 3 hours. I will be raising money for St Margaret's Hospice in Taunton.
I cannot praise the staff at St Margaret's Hospice enough. Mum was only there for 5 days before she passed away but they provided the most highest level of care. They looked after Mum so well and also looked after me, Dad and my brother.

Sorry for your loss. Good luck with your sponsorship. The hospices do an awesome job and I and my family try to raise as much as we can for our local hospice St.Gemma's in Leeds where my husband spent the last week of his life. They are all funded totally by charitable donations so every penny they can get is welcomed greatfully. Also it is well worthwhile encouraging sponsors to tick 'gift aid' if they are uk tax payers as this increases the amount the hospices actually receive from money donated to them. Have you thought of joining www.justgiving.com as an online way of getting sponsorship? This means that people donate directly to the cause and saves you the hassle of having to follow up all the people who have sponsored you to collect their offerings. Good luck on the day. x x
