St Luke's - Sheffield's Hospice

Thank you to the team at Sheffield company Amrita Nutrition who have supported our patient care with a special £2,000 donation.❤️ Staff at the nutritional supplement supplier were asked to select their favourite good causes, which would each receive a donation from the company’s profits for the year. And St Luke’s was among the nine organisations to receive a £2,000 share of the cash. “We understand how crucial community contributions are to St Luke’s so they can continue to provide quality palliative care. “We are deeply grateful for the support they provided to one of our colleagues and their family during a difficult time.” Our Fundraising Manager Matthew Sheridan added: “It was a real pleasure to meet the team at Amrita Nutrition - the company has a great ethos and it’s clear that they truly value the work that St Luke’s does in the community, with colleagues having seen first-hand the impact St Luke’s has on the lives of so many Sheffield people. “I look forward to working with the team at Amrita Nutrition moving forward and really appreciate their most generous donation.” #ThankYouThursday #CorporateGiving

Runner Lucy Pearson has triumphantly raised over £1,000 for our patient care by taking part in the Jane Tomlinson Run for All Leeds 10K event this June.

This #ThankYouThursday we're saying 'bonjour' to cycling friends Will Gaunt and Peter Lindley as they reach the end of a £5,000 fundraising challenge in the shadow of the Eiffel Tower!🗼 The pair set off on their epic bike ride in support of our patient care on Bastille Day, July 14. Will, who is 26 and lives in High Green, and 25-year-old Peter, of Burncross, are experienced St Luke’s fundraisers – their first bike ride, back in 2021 raised more than £5,000, taking them from Sheffield to Cornwall in memory of Will’s grandad Ken Gaunt, and Jack’s aunt Susan Birds, both of whom were patients. This year’s 500-mile challenge took seven days to complete, setting off from Sheffield and passing through Leicester, Luton and Rochester, through the Channel Tunnel with Eurostar and then from Calais to Amiens, Mours and on to Paris. And by the time they arrived in the French capital, the pair had raised an incredible £5,000 for our patients and families. “Everything went according to plan, we didn’t have any major obstacles and even through Google Maps did send us the wrong way a couple of times, we completed the challenge on schedule and didn’t even have any punctures,” said Will. “The weather was okay through the English leg of the route but once we got over to France it was very warm and there was one day when we did 82 miles that felt like the hardest ride we have ever done. “We really pleased with all the money we’ve raised – we originally thought a realistic target would be £2,000 but the figure just kept going up and up – we couldn’t believe it. “All expenses have been covered by ourselves so every penny made is going straight to St Luke’s. “It was well worth the effort and it was a great experience to look back on when we’re older.” If you would like to support Will and Peter, there's still time!
