The fourth St Mary’s Walk to Remember will be held in Barrow on Friday, May 14th 2010. As of the 28th April, 580 ladies have come forward to take part, but the Hospice is short of reaching its target of having 1000 ladies join the walk. In the next couple of weeks St Mary’s would like to see as many ladies as possible come forward to take up the challenge.
In 2009, the 630 ladies who took part in the moonlight walk raised an amazing £50000. This was a wonderful achievement, but this year WITH YOUR HELP, St Mary’s would like to at least equal that magnificent total.
The Hospice needs to raise approx £5500 per day to continue providing comprehensive specialised supportive and palliative care for people with life-limiting conditions in South Cumbria. This special care and support is beyond price, but is only possible because of the generosity of those who give.
It costs £10 to register for the 11km (7.5 mile) walk, which will start at 10pm from ASDA in Barrow whom St Mary’s would like to thank for all their support with helping arrange the walk and through the year.
Ladies taking part will once again receive a bag of goodies, which includes a t-shirt, glow sticks and much more. This year the theme for the walk will be pink again and ladies are encouraged to wear their pyjamas for fun!
All participants are asked to register as soon as possible. To secure a place please contact St Mary’s for a registration form.
