Third Annual Event in 2019 see
https://www.sthelena.org.uk/join-in/events/comic-hero-run-2019
Be our hero and dress as your hero to run, walk, fly or time travel around historic Castle Park in Colchester!
Our second annual fundraising event on Sunday 18th March is set to be great fun for families, film fans and comic book buffs alike. Whether you’re a fan of Star Wars or Marvel, Lord of the Rings or Frozen – this one is for you!
Every penny you raise in sponsorship will help us to help local people with an incurable illness to live well and die with dignity and choice. Andrew Lally, a lover of all things sci-fi, understands the importance of hospice care – his mum, Christine, was diagnosed with Pancreatic and Rectal Cancer in 2012 and given 12 months to live.
Andrew said: “The hospice seemed to reach in and fix something in the heart of our family to help all of us cope and that was the beautiful thing. Something that every human being deserves at the end of their life is that ability to relax, to not be afraid or scared.” Read Andrew’s story.
So dust off your cape, dig out your wand or simply suit up for our awesome fundraising fun run! Which route will you choose?
