🌟 In Aid of Great Oaks Hospice – Tony’s Amazing Challenge! 🌟
Yesterday, Tony completed his second half marathon of 2026, proudly adding another medal to his growing collection! 🏅💚
Tony has recently celebrated his 60th birthday and has set himself an inspiring challenge — aiming to complete at least six, and hopefully twelve, half marathons throughout 2026, all in aid of Great Oaks Hospice.
As one of our dedicated hospice volunteers, Tony is taking on this year‑long effort to support the care we provide to local people and their families. We are incredibly grateful for his commitment, energy and generosity.
