a 10 mile sponsored walk in aid of St Joseph's Hospice

St Joseph’s Hospice exists to help people live life to the full, to the very last. We have been enhancing lives, easing pain and bringing comfort and understanding for over a hundred years. Nothing can soften the blow of learning that you have been diagnosed with an illness which cannot be cured and will bring an end to your life. But at St Joseph’s Hospice we help our patients and those closest to them to cope with the anxiety and challenges which may arise.

St Joseph’s broad range of services enriches the lives of patients and their families from the diverse communities of East and North East London. St Joseph’s is available to all those who can benefit from it; we work to meet all the needs of our patients including those which reflect their ethnic, cultural or religious heritage. The care and treatment available at St Joseph’s helps patients live as actively as possible for as long as possible.

All our services are provided free of charge. St Joseph’s is a charity and depends on the generosity of its supporters to enable it to continue its work. It costs £13,756,000 to run St Joseph’s every year. Only about half of this comes from the NHS. St Joseph’s needs to raise the remaining £5,500,000 every year.
