Hike4Hospices 2009 gets Sally’s support

10 May 2009

Shoreham Airport provided a fitting venue for the recent launch of the 2009 Hike4Hospices campaign.  Over 250 walkers are expected to raise more than 40,000 pounds while walking the South Downs and Sally encouraged people from all over the region to get involved.  “These specialist centres aren’t funded by the NHS.  Without this fundraising, these wonderful hospices and the staff in them would not exist.  The care they give to those who are terminally ill is priceless for the families concerned.  So come on, get the walking boots out, get fit and raise some money for your local hospice!”  Walkers can choose to walk the entire two day route or just one or two sections.
