Why Take Part?

Funds raised from these challenges directly support KEMP Hospice’s services — including clinical care, therapy, emotional support and bereavement support — all provided free of charge to patients and families across the Wyre Forest. The hospice relies on the generosity of fundraisers and volunteers to raise more than £2.1 million each year so that vital care can continue.

“Taking on a challenge event is a fantastic way to test yourself and make a real impact,” said Ian Carr, Head of Fundraising & Communications at KEMP Hospice. “Your participation and fundraising will help ensure we can be there for those who need us most, offering compassionate care and support without charging for our services. These challenges are ideal for individuals, groups, or workplaces looking to do something truly memorable in support of a cause that changes lives every day.”
