Three teams from OPM Group, took part in The Coniston Challenge to raise funds for Sue Ryder Manorlands hospice.
Held at the picturesque Coniston Hotel, the charity day, allowed teams to partake in various adrenaline filled activities – such as Land Rover driving, Archery, Human foosball and Clay Pigeon Shooting to name a few.
The day ended with a charity auction and an overview about how the much-appreciated funds will make a difference to families and people living with life limiting conditions.
Although, none of our teams were at the top of the leaderboard with the combined effort of all 27 teams we managed to raise a staggering £52,000.
Sue Ryder Manorlands Hospice, help people with life-limiting conditions to live the best lives they possibly can. They support people through the most difficult times of their lives, providing services such as palliative care, complementary therapy, and community services.
Last year Sue Ryder Nurses and Manorlands Hospice provided 105,000 hours of palliative care and support to patients and their families. Their services and support are free of charge but cost nearly £3.5 million per year to provide. This equates to over £9,500 per day.
