A Hartlepool runner and staff member at Seymour Civil Engineering is running the Virgin London Marathon in aid of Alice House Hospice, as part of Seymour’s 40th anniversary celebrations in 2018.
The engineering firm has enjoyed a long standing charity partnership with their local Hospice and Alan himself has previously supported by taking part in the Great North Run as well as joining fundraiser Lee Dodgson during part of his Land’s End to John O’Groats challenge.
A well-known Hartlepool runner and survivor of a devastating car crash, Phil Holbrook, has marked a milestone in his fundraising for Alice House Hospice, in memory of his late wife Sally. Phil and Sally were both involved in a horrific traffic accident on 23 December 2012, which sadly took Sally’s life and left Phil with severe injuries.
In the five years since then and as part of Phil’s ongoing recovery he assembled Team Sally, a group of runners which continues to grow in numbers and take part in the Great North Run, to raise much needed funds for Hospice care.

Alice House Hospice recently took ownership of 4 lovely Hospice Hens as part of a project which has been funded with a grant from the National Lottery Community Fund.
These hens have been resident in the Holistic Wellbeing Centre gardens since the beginning of October this year and have now started to regularly lay eggs, much to the delight of the members of the Chicken Club.
