We’d like to say a huge thank you to our supporter Yvonne, who completed our Step Into Spring challenge by walking 10,000 steps every day in May, and raised an amazing £730 for our hospice!

 

Yvonne shared some fun stats from her journey with us:

2540 extra steps over target
Steps completed in two overseas countries
320 flights of stairs climbed
£100 – the highest single donation
8 pounds lost
1 very happy lady!

Thank you, Yvonne, for stepping up to our challenge and making a huge effort to support our hospice this May. If you’re feeling inspired and would like to get involved in one of our upcoming challenges, check out our events page today!
