This year the Annual Hospice Towpath Walk, celebrating a phenomenal 21 years, was held on the Sunday 29th April. There was a marvellous turnout for this years walk and all participants enjoyed the day despite the chilling temperatures!
Speaking on behalf of all those who took part, Walk Organiser Deborah Kennedy said, “I would like to thank everyone who participated in the walk, and in particular those individuals who raised such large sums of money, without whose help we would never have raised such a fantastic sum of money. Sincere thanks also to the Hockey Club and Cue Club for the use of their premises, Around Noon, and indeed everyone who supported our fundraising efforts in any way. I was delighted that so many participants this year and it’s a relief that all of our hard work has paid off so well for the Hospice”.
Speaking on behalf of the Hospice Siobhan McArdle said, “We are deeply indebted to Deborah and to all those who help her in continuing to organise this walk, and also all of those who take part. This year saw the 21st year of the Towpath walk so Deborah and friends truly deserve a great amount of thanks and appreciation for the continued efforts in supporting the Hospice. It is such a fantastic sum of money to be handed over to the hospice once again, in fact since it began Deborah and her walkers have raised over £285,000 and I think everyone involved should be very proud of their good work”.
