Supporting St Mary’s Hospice
This year, we’re proud to support St Mary’s Hospice. Kate is taking on an incredible challenge, climbing Mount Meru and Mount Kilimanjaro, in aid of the hospice. With only 18% of their funding coming from the NHS, St Mary’s relies on supporters to continue providing free, specialist care for people with life-shortening conditions across South Cumbria. Any donation you can make on the day will go directly towards this amazing cause.
