Walkers raise £1000 for hospice

Charity walkers have raised over £1000 for Bluebell Wood Children’s Hospice in memory of a teen family member who died after a year fighting a brain tumour.

On Thursday 26 August the Cranfield family hiked from the Lock Keeper in Worksop to Bluebell Wood Children’s Hospice in North Anston to raise money for the hospice.

The family decided to organise the walk in memory of their family member ‘Lewis’ who would have turned 18 last month.

Lewis received palliative care from Bluebell Wood before he sadly passed away in 2017, after a year of aggressive treatment.

His family organised the event to raise money for the hospice to help more families with the same care and support they received during such a difficult time.

In addition to the walk there was also a litter pick to help fundraise for the hospice.

So far a total of £1012 has been raised for the hospice by nearly 60 supporters.
