The Myton Hospices provides compassionate care and support for people with life-limiting illnesses and their families - both in their Inpatient Units and out in the community.

It costs over £15 million every year to provide their services free of charge to their patients and their loved ones.

As a charity, with less than 20% funding coming from the NHS they must raise more than £12 million this year! 

It’s recently been in the national news that hospice care is extremely underfunded and that’s why I’m lacing up my running shoes and training to run 13.1 miles to raise as much money as possible for this great cause over the next few months. I need to raise a minimum of £100, but it would be amazing to exceed this amount!

More people than ever need a Hospice Bed, and tragically, too many people on the waiting list for a bed at Myton will die before they can access one.

As the only provider of Hospice Inpatient Beds in Coventry and Warwickshire, the demand is huge.

I am taking on the Warwick Half Marathon, to raise money so Myton can be there for everyone who needs them, now and in the future.

To reach this year’s target of £25,000, they rely entirely on sponsorship, and that’s where you come in. Just look at what your support could help fund:

Please donate today and help The Myton Hospices be there for those who need them most. 

I will also be sharing training updates along the way, so feel free to come back to this page to view my progress at any time!

Thank you in advance for donating what you can to such a great cause where your donations will work hard to support patients and their loved ones during a difficult time in their lives. It is much appreciated.
