The hospice is fortunate to have such amazing support from the people of Bury and we are delighted to announce a programme of events for our community and businesses to get involved in over the next few months.
It is looking for individuals as well as teams to take part in the Three Towers Trek on Saturday, June 24.
Starting at Margaret Haes Riding Centre in Holcombe, the route will be approximately 22 miles and will feature Peel Tower, Darwen Tower and Rivington Pike Tower while taking in breathtaking views and panoramic landscapes.
The trek is estimated to take between 8.5 and 11 hours and will finish at the Jolly Crofters Pub in Horwich.
Our experienced guides will be with you every step of the way, brought to you by Outdoor Activities Service and Alternative Adventure. The registration fee is £25 per person with a suggested sponsorship of £200.
Join us at our Cocktails and Catwalk fashion show, which will take place at the Village Hotel on Sunday, June 25 between noon and 6pm.
The event will be co-hosted by The Real Banksie and Tom Gavin, assistant manager, who works across our retail operations.
The catwalk will showcase a selection of clothing from our charity shops including evening wear, wedding outfits, shoes and accessories.
All of our models have a personal connection with the hospice.
Bolton musician Rob Jones will be performing throughout the afternoon.
There will also be a raffle where you will be able to win a host of luxury items and there will be a pop up shop, where you can purchase items on display. Tickets cost £45 including a cocktail on arrival and a two-course meal.
