Great effort in Greater Manchester Marathon boosts Pendleside Hospice

Aimee Pickles raised £3,677 for the hospice after taking part in the marathon in April.

Aimee raised the money through sponsorship and by organising a 'pre loved and prosecco evening' which helped bolster the fantastic amount.

Pendleside Hospice costs more than £4m. to run each year, of which the hospice gets 22% of its funding from the NHS. This means that the hospice needs to raise more than £3m. from charitable donations.
