Walk to Remember

Walk to Remember

Thank you to everyone who walked with us on Sunday in the glorious sunshine.

It was a very special morning, we loved seeing so many people, families and four legged friends coming together to walk in memory of someone special - to remember, reminisce, and share memories. The tributes left on the memory trees were really touching. We hope you enjoyed being part of the walk.

Thank you to our volunteer photographer, Janet, who was around the route capturing the day.

Thank you also to the wonderful Fascinating Rhythm choir for performing for us in the morning.

 

If you have collected any sponsorship money to pay in, you can either send us a cheque to the fundraising office in Long Ashton or pay it in through our website by selecting it's for the Walk to Remember. 

 

At St. Peter's Hospice, we understand the impact of grief and loss on families, children and loved ones. Our caring team offer a safe and supportive environment to express your emotions, share your memories and find comfort in knowing you are not alone. Walk to Remember provides a way to honor the memory of our loved ones, alongside others who have been through a similar journey.

 

"The kindness and support I have received from the bereavement service following my husband's death have been second to none. Being able to talk to someone outside the family about how I was feeling and how I would cope with the situation has been invaluable. After several months I am now feeling much more positive and know things will get better."

 

We couldn't offer these services withour your kind support making it possible. Your entry fee covers the cost of holding the event, so all donations and sponsorship raised on top could help fund our bereavement support so we can reach more individuals and families during the most difficult times.
