“When I had the opportunity to add his name to the Celebration Tree, I didn’t hesitate.” ❤️

Cora's husband Pio was cared for by Katharine House before he died peacefully at the hospice in November 2024, aged 54.

Cora has since chosen a rose on our Celebration Tree in memory of Pio. 🌹

Our Celebration Tree offers a special way to remember and celebrate someone you love, or mark an occasion such as a birthday or anniversary. You can choose an engraved bronze, silver or gold leaf, or a rose for a longer dedication.

Every dedication helps us continue to provide specialist palliative care for local people and their families.

🇨🇳🥾 They've done it! And they've raised over £100,000! 🎉

Our 17 amazing China trekkers have completed their Great Wall challenge!

The last couple of days have been some of the toughest yet, with plenty of steep climbs, challenging steps and some absolutely breathtaking views along the way!

Yesterday, the team tackled the Jinshanling to Simatai section of the wall, with around 1,600 steps just to reach the wall itself. And that was before all the steep climbs and descents that followed! 🥾

Today was their final day of trekking, taking on a remote section of the Great Wall. After one last challenging climb, they reached the highest point of their trek and were rewarded with the most spectacular views and a well-deserved celebration lunch.

Our Events & Challenges Officer, Carley, said it was one of the toughest climbs of the trip but the feeling of reaching the top made it all worthwhile.

We're so proud of all 17 trekkers for taking on this amazing challenge and raising such a fantastic amount for Katharine House Hospice.

A huge well done and thank you to every single one of you for all your hard work, determination and fundraising. To have raised over £100,000 is just unbelievable! 🤩

Thank you so much to everyone who has supported and sponsored our trekkers along the way too. We'll share the final fundraising total with you very soon! ❤️

📸 Here are some more fantastic photos from their last couple of days on the Great Wall!

🇨🇳🥾 Just look at those views! 😍

Our 17 amazing trekkers have been making their way along another challenging stretch of the Great Wall of China today. ❤️

They've been trekking from Gubeikou to Jinshanling, covering around 15.5km, with plenty of steep climbs and uneven steps along the way!

Our Events & Challenges Officer, Carley, has been in touch with another update from the team:"We've had tears, we've had laughter but most of all we've had team spirit. So many pinch-me moments. Everywhere you look, you're amazed!

Lunch was brought to us at the top of the wall. Goodness knows how it got there, but it did! There aren't many people who can say they've had a takeaway delivered to the Great Wall!"

All 17 trekkers are taking on this incredible challenge to raise vital funds for Katharine House Hospice and we'd be so grateful if you could show them some support. ❤️

💚 Shopping at Waitrose & Partners, Banbury? Please vote for us!

We're delighted to have been chosen as one of three charities for the Waitrose Banbury Community Matters green token scheme.

If you're shopping in store over the coming months, you can support Katharine House Hospice simply by placing your green token in our box on the left.

Your tokens will help support our Bereavement Cafés, which bring local people together who have experienced the loss of a loved one, offering a welcoming space to meet others, share experiences and find support.

We've recently seen the number of people attending our cafés more than double, so this support will help us continue to be there for more people when they need us.

A big thank you to Waitrose Banbury for choosing to support Katharine House Hospice! 💚
