Les Bourgs Hospice plays an essential role in our community providing round the clock complex respite, symptom control and end of life care 365 days a year. Our holistic palliative care covers the physical, emotional and spiritual needs of our patients as well as supporting their families and loved ones. In 2024 we saw an increase in the demand on our services and a shift in the complexity of needs which has resulted in a rise in our running costs to £8k per day.

By registering for this event every penny of your registration, sponsorship or donation will go directly to providing & supporting free specialist care to our patients and their loved ones when they need us most.

All we encourage you to do is walk every day for 30 days between 1st-30th April but everyone is different so here are some ideas for your own challenge:

 - Walk a Daily Mile every day for 30 days. Be inspired by the Health Improvement Commission's Be Active Campaign 

- Walk 10,000 steps every day for 30 days

- Challenge friends and family to see who can walk the most steps during the month

- Sign up as a team of 4 and challenge another team (think inter-office or inter-firm rivalry!) to see who can walk the most steps during the month

- Choose where you walking would take you in the world as a target. For example a team of 4 could cover 660 miles during the month (based on 10,000 steps a day) which would take them as far as Denmark or Spain. Where would you go?

You can walk whenever you like so whether it is as the sun is rising to celebrate the start of the day, your commute to and from work, to collect shopping, walk the dog, in your lunch hour or when the children are in bed - the timing is up to you and what fits in with your day.
