50 in 50 for Rowcroft Hospice

Our wonderful staff continually go the extra mile – or in the case of Geoff Pring our Director of Visitor Experience, 650 miles! Split across 50 half marathons in the year, Geoff is running to raise money for Rowcroft Hospice. Following his first competitive run in Palama, Majorca, Geoff was inspired to run 50 half marathons, cumulating in the 50th run just days after his 50th birthday.

Rowcroft Hospice is an incredible charity, supporting those suffering from life-limiting illnesses and their families, at home or at Rowcroft itself free of charge. Staff dedicate themselves to supporting others, giving specialist nursing care to over 2,500 people each year. 

On 18th April Geoff completed his 25th run (halfway), a slightly unusual course involving running 21, one-kilometre loops around the Abbey, joined by family: Helen, Peter & Ben. Staff: Chay, Matt, Keira, Chloe, Julie, Millie and Brian raising £300 over the weekend. Please support Geoff’s goal and donate what you can by clicking HERE or scan the QR code below.
