Sofa to Summit

Springhill Hospice have launched a virtual event to challenge the local community and raise vital funds.

Sofa to Summit invites supporters to take on their own challenge, in their own way, to raise money for the Hospice. This can be anything from swimming 100 lengths at the local pool to walking the length of your favourite mountain trek on the streets of Rochdale or from your back garden. The challenge allows you to choose the activity to suit you, all while raising money for the much loved local Hospice.

Barbara Lloyd, Community Support Fundraiser at Springhill Hospice said:

"The Sofa to Summit virtual challenge is a great way to push and challenge yourself whilst staying safe and following Government guidance. It can provide a welcome change to the daily routine and a chance to ‘move more’ after all these weeks in lockdown."

Barbara added: “With the number of events cancelled this year due to the outbreak of Coronavirus, it also offers a fun and innovative way to help raise vital funds for the Hospice that everyone of all ages can enjoy. It would be lovely to have as many people as possible taking part.”

If you would like to take part in the challenge and help raise vital funds for the Hospice to continue giving care to its patients and their families, visit: springhill.org.uk/sofa-to-summit email fundraising@springhill.org.uk or call 01706 641790 for more information.
