Hello,

Just a quick email to let you know that I’ve decided to fundraise for Alzheimer’s Society, and I’d really appreciate your support.

I have set myself the challenge to walk 26 miles in 11 hours on 2 May and have signed up for Stonehenge Trek26. I would be very grateful if you feel able to support my fund raising.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to Alzheimer’s Society, so it’s the most efficient way to give – saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

You can donate to my JustGiving page by clicking here https://www.justgiving.com/page/pat-dominey-walk26?utm_medium=FR&utm_source=EM&utm_campaign=lc_frp_share_transaction_fundraiser_page_launched

JustGiving sends your donation straight to Alzheimer’s Society and automatically reclaims Gift Aid if you are a UK taxpayer, so your donation is worth even more.

Thank you for your support!

Pat Dominey

5th Special Walk to Raise Funds to Help Bereaved people in Basingstoke and North and North-East Hampshire.

Following last year’s successful event, the local Branch of Cruse is again organising a special 5 mile walk on Sunday 22nd March 2026, taking in beautiful local views to raise money to support bereaved people locally.

The walk is being organised by Colin Godfrey, Chair of Cruse North and North-East Hampshire Branch.

Quote from Colin Godfrey, Cruse Basingstoke, “We are really excited once again to be organising this special walk. We’ve been supporting bereaved children, young people and adults in Basingstoke Area for over 30 years and know how important it is that people grieving get specialist support, as soon as they need it. Last year we supported well over 200 clients, and we are hoping to increase the number of volunteers to help deal with the steady increase in client referrals. This will need further funds to train our new Bereavement Volunteers”.

We are always looking for new volunteers to undertake Cruse training which can be an incredibly rewarding experience.’

We are encouraging bereaved people, volunteers, supporters, and the public to join us for this friendly walk – everyone welcome, dogs too!

We’ll be meeting at The Café In The Park, Broadmere Road, Beggarwood, RG22 4AQ and setting off from 9.30am.’

All participants should register here and will receive a free Cruse t-shirt:

Cruse Basingstoke is a local branch of the national charity Cruse Bereavement Support.

Please don’t forget to let the leader know if you intend to go on the walk.
