It’s time to dig out your favourite walking shoes or hiking boots, gather your family and friends and hike with us at our 2nd Annual HIKE FOR HOSPICE. Register HERE.
We’re inviting Hospice supporters, friends and neighbours to reconnect with the great outdoors and walk, hike or amble with us along the Mud Creek Trail in Chatham. Strollers, walkers and wheelchairs are welcome on this accessible and pet-friendly path. The Hike will begin and end at John McGregor Secondary School. With multiple trail lengths to choose from, people of all fitness levels can enjoy this afternoon of fun. Every step counts!
Hike for Hospice is a unique annual nationwide initiative hosted by hospices and palliative care organizations in late April and early May. This event helps launch National Palliative Care Week, while building awareness and raising funds to ensure people living with a life-threatening illness and their loved ones receive support at no charge. The hike celebrates and honours our loved ones in a special and meaningful way. It’s also an opportunity to promote the phenomenal work that our hospice volunteers and staff do every day.
100% of funds raised at Hike for Hospice stay in our community
All funds raised at the hike will help ensure we can continue to provide exceptional, compassionate end-of-life care to the people who call the hospice home, while helping their loved ones find peace and comfort at a difficult time.
Participants can register individually or as part of a team. Please register by April 9th to guarantee a Hike for Hospice t-shirt.
Parking is limited – please consider car-pooling with a friend!
