Val's girls (Lani and Laura) are walking for St Christopher's

In memory of my Mum

Last year my mum was still with us when I walked.  She passed away the following month on June 15th.
Throughout my mums 13 month journey with cancer, St Christopher's treated her and us with warmth, dignity and care. 
We'd visit the hospice as a family for lunch and then my mum would get her nails painted there, or have a shower. It felt like our little sanctuary where we could relax and were always welcomed with smiles and warmth. The hospice was somewhere we looked forward to visiting.
As mum became too weak to travel, St Christopher's sent transport for her and the drivers would always have lots of banter with her on the journey, so that even on days when she felt really unwell, she'd always have a smile on her face.
Nurses came out whenever we felt we needed, and were there with a hug when I spoke separately with them about my mums deteriorating condition.
They were open and honest and guided me through my mums last days.
Mum's wish was to pass away at home, and she did, pain free surrounded by family.
I will forever be grateful to St Christopher's staff and volunteers and want to continue helping raise funds so that others can benefit from the amazing care the hospice offers.

We're fundraising for St Christopher's

Fun Walk is St Christopher's biggest fundraising event of the year. 

2024's event was attended by over 2000 walkers and raised over a whopping £206,000! 

With live music, entertainment, street food and vintage shopping, come join the festival feeling on Keston Common on 11th May 2025!

I'll be there, walking for my local hospice. Sponsor me and help to provide expert end of life care to people in South London. 

Thank you.
