Feedback from the Farleigh Hospice Santa Fun Run

To everyone at Raynet

A huge thank-you to you all for your hardwork in ensuring the Santa Fun was such a success on Sunday..

With a remarkable turnout of over 400 Santas, Central Park transformed into a vibrant sea of red, filled with happy and smiling participants. Despite the gloomy weather, the atmosphere was great and the sound of laughter echoing throughout was simply fabulous. We should take immense pride in what we accomplished for Farleigh yesterday, and it’s undeniable that none of this would have been possible without your invaluable help and support, along with the incredible contributions from our volunteers. You are all amazing, and I want to say a huge thank you to each and every one of you for making the Santa Fun Run 2023 such a great event.

I will be in touch shortly with the dates for our Walk for Life, our Cycle for Life and next year’s Santa Fun Run too.

Wishing you all a very happy Christmas and our best wishes for the New Year.

Thank you

Debbie

Feedback from Farleigh Hospice Cycle for Life 2021

Dear John and Jason

On behalf of Farleigh Hospice I would like to thank you and all the volunteers from Raynet for attending our Cycle for Life Event yesterday and supporting our cyclists. Thanks to you we were able to offer three great cycling routes of 20KM, 50 KM AND 100KM routes across mid Essex.  The feedback from the cyclists taking part has been amazing with them praising the route, signage, the fantastic marshalling – cheering them on their way around the route and the refreshments offered to them to keep them going! We are hoping the event will have raised over £20,000 allowing us to continue providing essential care and support to people with life-limiting illnesses and their loved ones across mid Essex.   For over three decades, Farleigh Hospice has been providing care for anyone affected by a life-limiting illness or bereavement. We help people to live as actively as possible by providing physical and emotional care, free of charge. We support people affected by any life-limiting illness, including lung disease, neurological conditions, heart failure and cancer. Whether you are ill, bereaved, or worried about someone who is, Farleigh Hospice is here for you. We are committed to continue providing care to those with life limiting illnesses and will continue to do so in their own homes during the Covid 19 pandemic. We are also very aware that there will be even more people needing our services over the coming months and we have been preparing for this increase. Our aim is to keep our staff, volunteers and the people who use our services safe whilst continuing to provide much needed care for those who are at the end of their lives. Your thoughtfulness and your support at this time is so very much appreciated.
Thank you once again for helping to make this year’s Cycle for Life so successful!
Kind regards

Thank you for your time and hard work over the Saltmarsh weekend.  Without your input and assistance the event simply would not be possible.  We have received some great feedback so far and people have been very complementary and positive about the event overall and our partners such as yourselves.

Hopefully you will be available to attend?

Farleigh Santa Fun Run

“On behalf of Farleigh Hospice I just want to say thank you very much for supporting our Santa Fun Run on Sunday, we are very grateful!

We had over 670 Santas take part. Without you, it would be impossible to run the event and we would not be able to raise the vital funds that enable us to keep caring for the people of Mid Essex with life limiting illnesses and their families. I am very pleased to tell you, that with your help, we have so far had nearly £21,000 pledged in sponsorship, with more to come. We expect that the total raised from the event will exceed £25,000!”

Orchid Cycle Ride

”Orchid Cycle Essex was a big success for the charity and we are extremely grateful that you decided to help again-we couldn’t do it without you!”

“I know I thanked you on the day but I just wanted to record my appreciation for the help you and your team gave us on the EPC exercise. Although in the end your services were not required by us it was a welcome reassurance to know that you were there should the need arise. Thanks to you and the professional way your team conducted themselves during the day communications problems were one thing I didn’t need to worry about.”

”Really helpful using RAYNET, when mobile phones couldn’t be reached.”

“Thank you so much for giving up your time to come along and help at our cycle ride event. It made such s difference having you there and we really appreciate it so thank you very much!”

”Firstly may we thank you all for your help, assistance and hard work and for being part of the wider Airshow team and assisting us in making this event one of the best we have had to date!!! The feedback has been overwhelming and we have already started preparations for next year’s event including booking the Sally B. So……THANK YOU!”
