We started wanting to do the Home Nations – 877 miles but
with all the miles pledged we are going to all of the Six Nations stadia 2451
miles.
As players, from U6 to Vets, and parents embark on their virtual journey across six countries we need to convert those miles to donations for Hospice in the Weald – donations can be made at our Just Giving page,
For Hospice in the Weald, like many other charities, the
lockdown has meant that vital sources of funding have stopped with shops closed
and fundraising events cancelled for the foreseeable future.
Hospice in the Weald has been further impacted by increased
demand to support patients but also to do so under strict Covid-19 controls
requiring PPE. Like all Hospices, Hospice in the Weald is not part of the NHS
and although they do get a small amount of funding from the government the vast
majority of the running costs are funded from charitable donations.
With the impact of increased demand, increased costs and
reduced donations the club are embarking on this challenge to help Hospice in
the Weald as they work on the front line of the pandemic giving patients a
dignified death and supporting their wider families.
