Sponsorship

We ask each runner to pledge to raise a minimum of £450 for Garden House Hospice Care. Why? Because this will fund the seated exercise sessions at all nine of our Wellbeing Hubs for one week, each attended by an average of 33 lonely and isolated people in locations around Stevenage, Letchworth and Hitchin.

We need you, your friends, families and colleagues to help assemble a team of amazing runners for the Hackney Half Marathon, helping Garden House Hospice Care continue to provide free palliative care in and around North Hertfordshire.
