Join us on Saturday 7th September for a 6.5 mile circular walk around scenic Letchworth, taking in the beautiful sunset and raising vital funds for our specialist hospice and community care services

The 6.5 mile circular route starts and finishes at Letchworth Hall hotel, taking in acres of countryside and surrounding villages as the sun sets and the stars come out. In addition to the sunset, there will be light and sound shows along the way, including our spectacular tunnel of lights. We also encourage walkers to help light up the night by wearing glowsticks and fancy dress.

Sunset Starlight Walk is a 'walk to remember', whether you're walking to celebrate the lives of those no longer with us or make new memories… or perhaps a bit of both! It's a wonderful opportunity to enjoy a late summer's evening, walk and talk with loved ones, and connect with the local community. Grab your friends, family, colleagues, walking group or sports club and sign up for Sunset Starlight Walk today.

Four-legged friends are also welcome to join in the fun!

Every year, Garden House Hospice Care needs to raise £7.7 million - up from £6.5 million last year. That means we now need to raise £15,300 a day to provide our specialist palliative care free of charge to the local community.

Sunset Starlight Walk is a sponsored walk and we are hopeful that the event will raise enough to fund our entire services for two days. Here are some targets you could aim for and what they might pay for:

 

  • £96 could pay for four hours of attentive care on our Inpatient Unit for one person
  • £220 could pay for all the refreshments at one of the Wellbeing Hubs we run for people who are lonely and isolated, for a whole year
  • £347 could pay for the medication we prescribe for a typical patient
  • £545 could pay for travel costs for our Hospice at Home team for five days
