    Family fun


    Our events calendar offers something for all the family – so why not bring them ALL along to one of these events?
     
    Each August our four-legged friends follow the 2.3 mile social stroll around Pontefract Racecourse for Paws in the Park. Every dog gets a certificate at the end and the dog that raises the most sponsorship gets a special doggy prize and as 'Best in Show' will feature on next year’s posters! If you haven’t got a dog, why not borrow one or join in with a friend that does?

    A visually spectacular fun-run takes place every year from the Hospice itself – the annual Santa Dash. Every entrant can receive a Santa suit in advance of the race and Santa’s as young as three weeks and as mature as 71 have completed the dash and got their finisher’s medal. 

    The more relaxing Memory Walk is a family-friendly stroll through the countryside each spring. Many walk in memory of someone special, releasing a balloon in their memory as the Walk is launched, but others just come for the atmosphere, exercise and fresh air.


    The Big Bake Sale gives you the opportunity to get involved with t nation’s favourite new past-time – baking! Organise a cake sale at home, school, work or anywhere you’d like and help raise funds. We’re also holding our own here at the Hospice where we’d love for you to join us.
