IT'S NOT JUST
A WALK IN THE PARK
Sunday 21 October, Oxford University Parks
3-mile autumnal stroll around, suitable for
people of all ages,
wheelchairs and buggies
Each year 750,000 people are treated at Oxford University
Hospitals NHS Trust for a diverse range of conditions. Many patients, their families and others in
the community want to do something to help the part of the Hospital that has
helped them. By taking part in this
three-mile sponsored walk you can choose which ward, department, research projects
of Fund you would like to support to ‘do your bit’ to say thank you.
Whether it’s the Delivery Suite
at the Horton, the Motor Neurone Disease Clinic, the Breast Reconstruction
Group, Children’s Hospital or the Cancer and Heart Centre, for example, all you
need to do is complete the entry form overleaf and tell us which part of the
hospital you would like to support.
‘It’s Not Just a Walk in the
Park’ is suitable for all the family, abilities and ages, and the route is pram
and wheelchair friendly.
It’s just £7.50 to enter and
children under 16 walk for free. We ask
you to aim to raise at least £50 in sponsorship for your chosen cause. We will provide sponsorship forms or you can
create an online fundraising page once you have registered.
Jayne Grainger, a patient of the
Oxford Cancer Centre, explains why she is walking for the Centre, ‘Last year I
took part in the Walk after having had an enormous tumour removed at the Oxford
Cancer Centre. Like many people I wanted
to give something back, and this walk was a lovely way to do just that. It is such a beautiful route and there was a
very special atmosphere on the day as staff, former and current patients and
their families came together to do something positive for their local
hospitals.’
By taking part in this walk you
will be helping thousands of patients treated across our hospitals – funding
additional equipment, research and better facilities.
