Memory is a way of holding on to the things you love, the things you are, the things you never want to lose.
Throughout our lives we all have to deal with loss and many of us wish to do something to celebrate the lives of those who are no longer here. Our sponsored event is a great opportunity for us all to walk in memory or celebration of someone special. Whether that person had contact with St. Gemma’s or not, we are inviting you to join us for this special event. It's also a great opportunity for all the men who couldn't take part in our Midnight Walk to take part in a similar event.
The 5 mile sponsored walk will take place on Saturday 25 September from 10am. It will begin at Colton Methodist Church with a celebration of those who you are walking for. The circuitous route will begin from the church hall and will take you in and around the Temple Newsam grounds and back to the church for refreshments. We will provide you with a fundraising pack to help raise funds for St. Gemma’s Hospice, a place that believes everyone should be cared for in the highest and most individual way possible during their most difficult journey.
We will provide a t-shirt to all participants which you can customise. So let’s get together and Walk in Their Shoes. Click here http://www.st-gemma.co.uk/events/forms/walkinshoesentryform.htm to apply online or call 0113 218 5505, email francines@st-gemma.co.uk. Entry is free, we just ask you to raise as much as you can for our Hospice.
We hope to see you there.
