We are excited that our 2025 vests will be sponsored by Clarity Procurement.
Nathan Liptrot, Director Clarity Procurement told us- “As a local business with core values of making a difference and investing in the community, when the opportunity arose to partner with St. Rocco’s and sponsor their vests for the Warrington Running Festival, this felt like the perfect match. We are honoured to be given this opportunity, and super proud to be supporting St. Rocco’s in their 40th year."
St. Rocco’s is a local charity that provides specialist end-of-life care and support across Warrington, helping adults who are coping with a life-limiting illness.
We offer a range of services for our patients and their families throughout their journey with us. These include our Inpatient Unit, Palliative Virtual Ward, and Outreach services. Our teams ensure care is tailored to the individual’s needs. Above all, we want to make every day count for our patients and their loved ones.
Our services are free of charge, and we care for our community across Warrington. We are a charity, so we rely on donations and fundraising to help us deliver our care. It costs over £5 million a year to run the hospice which means we need to raise nearly £15,000 a day! Without your support, we wouldn’t be here, and we appreciate it every single day.
So, will you take on the challenge and ‘Run for #TeamRoccos’ to help us raise money to care for our patients and their loved ones?
