It’s also reminded us to appreciate the simple things in life – a hug from a loved one\, enjoying the great outdoors and the promise of meeting again. \nIn these last months we’ve had more time than ever to look back and reflect on precious memories too. Here at St Richard’s we’re doing everything we can to help patients and their loved ones continue making memories for the future. This includes keeping in touch via virtual visiting and messaging or enjoying time together in our hospice gardens which feature these Worcestershire-made\, beautiful copper hearts. \nOur care is only possible with the backing of you and other wonderful supporters. \nDonations from across the county have enabled us to continue our care during the incredible challenges that the coronavirus pandemic has created. By way of a thank you\, those who make donations before 12th October can receive their own beautiful handmade heart that you can  keep forever as a symbol of precious memories. \nThe hearts look wonderful outdoors\, as they do in our hospice gardens\, but can be placed anywhere you choose. Support us today and help more patients and their loved ones create special memories together – memories that last a lifetime. \nThank you for your continued support URL:https://www.strichards.org.uk/event/forever-in-our-hearts/ CATEGORIES:(No Date),Campaigns ATTACH;FMTTYPE=: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20200810 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20200926 DTSTAMP:20240328T171625 CREATED:20200810T120333Z LAST-MODIFIED:20200810T120333Z UID:24481-1597017600-1601078399@www.strichards.org.uk SUMMARY:St Richard's Summer Raffle DESCRIPTION:We are thrilled to announce the winners of our 2020 Summer Raffle have been drawn: \n1st: 1338499 – £3\,416 \n2nd: 1145526 – £500 \n3rd: 1014234 – £100 \nEach winner is being contacted by a member of our team\, who will give them the good news! \nWe are so grateful to each and every person who bought tickets.

The draw will be held at the hospice on 25 September 2020 and you could win a top prize of £3\,416 – a prize value that’s meaningful to us as\, through the kindness of our supporters\, we were able to be help 3\,416 patients and their families last year. \nA second prize of £500 and third prize of £100 is also up for grabs. \nIf you receive raffle tickets through the post\, we’d love your support in buying or selling them on for our care.  And\, if you aren’t on our mailing list\, but would like to help\, please get in touch with us at appeals@strichards.org.uk or call us on 01905 958262.

We have found new ways of working so that much loved events\, such as our Waterways Walk\, can still go ahead – even if they look a little different. \nYou can still dust off those walking boots and enjoy the beautiful Worcestershire Waterways\, while supporting our care\, but this year at a date and time to suit you as the event goes virtual! \nTaking part in our virtual Waterways Walk is easy! Choose from either an 11-mile one-way route or a 22-mile return walk\, which you can complete at any point in the months of September or October. We’ll provide a map\, directions and everyone who signs up will receive their very own St Richard’s Hospice t-shirt. \nOf course\, the other thing we ask is that you raise as much as you can in sponsorship so we can continue to be there for patients and loved ones when they need us most. With our shops only just reopening after months of closure\, and most of our fundraising events cancelled\, the coronavirus pandemic is taking its toll on charities like us. But with your help\, and our broader community of supporters\, we are hopeful we can come through these difficult days together. \nIt is important to take on the virtual Waterways Walk safely and in line with Government recommendations about social distancing. Please remember to: \n– avoid peak times on the tow paths\, if possible\, e.g. weekends and midday.\n– stay 2 metres apart from other people not from your household. \n**Please note: Due to construction works being undertaken on the towpath between Sixways and Tibberton\, this year\, the 22-mile walk will be a return route meaning walkers will return the way they came after reaching the halfway point at The Anchor** \nSign up below – if you have any questions please get in touch with us on appeals@strichards.org.uk or call us on 01905 958262.

Not only is that a huge disappointment to those who’ve trained so hard to achieve their goal but to us as a charity which benefits from runners’ incredible fundraising efforts. \nIt’s particularly disappointing in a year when we’ve seen so many other fundraising events cancelled and our charity shops closed; a huge part of how we fund our free care for patients and their loved ones locally. \nSo\, this October we’re hoping you can help us by taking on 26.2 miles\, your way\, across the month. \nYou could\, walk\, run\, jump or even space-hopper your way to completing the distance – which is the same as the entire London Marathon route. \nSupporters of all ages are invited to sign-up and complete the challenge to fundraise for our care. \nThe only requirement is that you must follow Government guidelines on exercise and social distancing. \n  \nThere are five simple steps to taking part: \n\nDecide how will you complete your marathon. On your way to work\, or school? Or in one day? Will you run\, jog\, scoot\, skate or moonwalk?\nSign up using our form below 👇\n Set up a Just Giving page and encourage those you know to sponsor your marathon month\nTrack your miles using an app like Strava and our print-off sheet – then add them up until you’ve completed your challenge\nShare a photo or video of your challenge on social media – remember to tag St Richard’s Hospice and #SRHMarathon\n\n  \nWe hope you’ll make October your marathon month and help us raise much-needed funds to support our patients and those closest to them.

So\, you can still dust off those walking boots and enjoy the beautiful Worcestershire Waterways\, while supporting our care\, but at a date and time to suit you! You may even spot some Elephants along the way with the launch of Worcester’s Big Parade on 12th July. \nWith mass participation fundraising events off the cards this year\, St Richard’s Hospice needs your support more than ever. We have found new ways of working so that much-loved events\, such as our Waterways Walk\, can still go ahead – even if they look a little different. \nTaking part in a virtual Waterways Walk is easy! Choose from either an 11-mile one-way route or a 22-mile round walk\, which you can complete at any point in the months of July and August. We’ll provide a map\, directions and everyone who signs up will receive their very own St Richard’s Hospice t-shirt. \nOf course\, the other thing we ask is that you raise as much as you can in sponsorship so we can continue to be there for patients and loved ones when they need us most. With our shops only just reopening after months of closure\, and most of our fundraising events cancelled\, the coronavirus pandemic is taking its toll on charities like us. But with your help and our broader community of supporters\, we are hopeful we can come through these difficult days together. \nIt is important to take on the virtual Waterways Walk safely and in line with Government recommendations about social distancing. Please remember to: \n– avoid peak times on the towpaths\, if possible\, e.g. weekends and midday\n– stay 2 meters apart from other people not from your household.

Make this September the month to do so. \nThis September\, St Richard’s Hospice is running its annual Write a Will month. Participating solicitors across the county are offering local people the opportunity to write a single Will for £95\, or £150 for a double Will*\, with 100% of donations going directly to the hospice. \nThe campaign aims to raise awareness of the importance of writing a Will\, which sets out how people want their money\, property and possessions to be distributed after their death. In situations when a person dies without a Will\, rules dictate how the individual’s estate is allocated\, which may not be as they would wish. It is also important to update a Will if personal circumstances have changed\, for example if someone marries\, divorces or adopts a child. \nSeptember’s Write a Will scheme is only made possible by our wonderful solicitors Kitcat & Co Solicitors and Harrison Clark Rickerbys Law who donate their time completely free of charge. \nTo take part\, simply call your preferred solicitor and make an appointment quoting the “St Richard’s Hospice Write a Will Scheme”. Alternatively\, for general enquiries\, please contact Ria Simons\, Fundraiser on 01905 958211 or email rsimons@strichards.org.uk. \nTo contact Harrison Clark Rickerbys\, based in Deansway\, Worcester\, call Stephanie Tohill on 01905 746463 or email stohill@hcrlaw.com \nTo reach Kitcat and Co Solicitors\, in Avenue Road\, Malvern\, call David Kitcat on 01684 342173 or email dk@kitcat.legal \n*Offer covers simple Wills and mirror Wills for couples.

Following the Llanberis track to the summit using torches to light our way\, trekking by night will bring a fresh twist to this classic charity challenge. Upon reaching the mountain summit we’ll be rewarded with unforgettable views of the sun rising across the Snowdonia National Park\, and as we descend breathtaking sights of the mountain range will uncover before us. Once we reach the finish line in Llanberis we’ll celebrate our achievement with a well-earned breakfast! \nOvernight Challenge – miss one night of sleeping in a bed! \nWe leave the start venue in the evening and head to the start of the Llanberis Path. Also known as the Tourist Path\, this is one of the longer and more gradual ascents up Snowdon. The first part of the route is along a road towards the Penceunant Tea House\, a traditional 18th century cottage. \nShortly after the Tea House we leave the road and join the section leading to the Halfway House Café. This is a steady and easy to navigate path shadowing the railway line. Once we reach the Café the path will get noticeably steeper and rockier underfoot with a steep push on to Clogwyn Station\, the stretch under the railway bridge providing us with a moment’s respite. \nThe next stretch rises quite steeply and we’ll soon notice the ground dropping away on either side of our path. The steep gradient finally eases off as we approach the Bwlch Glad standing stone\, and from this point the path to the summit follows the railway lines all the way up to the final few steps to the summit cairn at 3\,560 ft. Once we reach the summit we’ll celebrate our achievement – although we may not want to spend too much time up there due to the cold! Our descent will take around 2 – 3 hours\, and when we reach the finish line we’ll complete our adventure with a delicious breakfast. \nClick here for an information brochure on this challenge \nTrekking distance – approx. 9.5 miles\n(Please note\, this is a complex itinerary and is subject to change.
