Take 40 day challenge to support St Helena Hospice

St Helena Hospice is challenging people to take on a 40 day challenge to mark its 40th anniversary and raise at least £40 to support local people who face incurable illness and bereavement.

The 40 in 40 challenge is free to enter and takes place from Saturday 1st February for 40 days until Wednesday 12th March 2025. Participants choose their own challenge to take on whenever and wherever it suits them over 40 days, and commit to raising at least £40, which could cover the cost of a doctor for an hour. 

Marcus Poston, partnerships fundraising manager at St Helena, said: 

“40 in 40 is your challenge, your way! Not only does it raise vital funds for St Helena Hospice, but it could be the start of a good habit for you to carry on with.

“You decide the challenge; maybe you will commit to 40 days of 40 squats a day or walking 40 miles, or perhaps baking 40 cakes or volunteering for 40 hours; whatever you choose, do it for 40 days and the money you raise will make an impact for people in need of hospice support.”
