ST BARNABAS: Get involved with this year's South Downs Trek
This is the second time we have held the South Downs Trek, which takes place on Saturday, October 8, to coincide with Hospice Care Week.
Starting at Devil’s Dyke, the trek takes in the beautiful scenery of the South Downs National Park, before finishing at the hospice where participants will be rewarded with a souvenir medal and glass of bubbly.

This year we are hoping to increase the number of walkers and raise even more in the process.
I myself took part last year and enjoyed the challenge so much that I have decided to do it again this year.
I am delighted to say that Derwyn Jones, chairman of our board of trustees, and our new president, Lord Henry, Earl of Arundel, will be joining me.
