Hospice Looking for Local Runners

St. Michael's Hospice are looking to local runners for support

St. Michael’s Hospice in Basingstoke is calling all local runners who are signed up to events such as the London Marathon and the Reading Half Marathon to get sponsored to support their local Hospice.

It’s really easy for anyone who is already taking part in a running event to get sponsored for their local Hospice, all they need to do is contact the fundraising team who can provide runners with a sponsorship form, t-shirt and fundraising pack to help them along the way.  What better way for local runners to show their support their local Hospice and how much they care about their local community. 

Last year local runners helped to raise over £4,000 for the Hospice which is a fantastic achievement and all goes towards providing free care to people in the local community with a life-limiting illness.

There are many other running events throughout the year which people can take part in and choose to get sponsored for their local Hospice.  Anyone already taking part in an event or interested in hearing more about how they can run to support St. Michael’s Hospice should contact Sarah Evans, Community Fundraiser on 01256 848 848 or email sarah.evans@stmichaelshospice.org.uk.
