CHARITY PARTNER

During the Swindon Shuffle this year we will be fundraising for Prospect Hospice. So if you see us shaking the bucket please give generously as it is such a worthy cause.

​

Since 1980, Prospect Hospice has provided the only dedicated end-of-life care service for people living across north east Wiltshire including Swindon, Marlborough and Royal Wootton Bassett.

 

Jeremy Lune, chief executive at Prospect Hospice, said:

 

“At Prospect Hospice, people and community are at the core of everything we do. We provide palliative and end-of-life care to over 2,000 people in Swindon and north-east Wiltshire every year. Despite decreasing NHS funding, we continue our vital work thanks to the unwavering support of our community.

​

“Though discussing death and dying can be uncomfortable, it’s not uncommon to find ourselves, perhaps after a drink with friends and family, talking about what our funeral song might be. This highlights the power of music to convey emotions and bring us together. Swindon Shuffle embodies this spirit – a genuine celebration of life in our wonderful community. We are incredibly grateful to be the charity of choice for this fantastic event. We couldn’t do what we do without you, so thank you.”
