Demelza Hospice Care for Children

We’re incredibly proud to be the official charity partner for Run Kent 2026 – and we’d love you to be part of Team Demelza this October! 

 

By taking on this challenge for Demelza, you're not just running a race, you are supporting your local children's hospice. We rely on the support of our local community to ensure that we can continue to deliver extraordinary care to extraordinary children who are facing serious or life-limiting conditions in your local area.

At Demelza, we want life to be the best it can be for these children, and for those who love them. We support families wherever it is best for them: at our hospices or at home, online, at school and in local communities.
