A LOCAL charity is inviting you to sign up to one of its daring events in 2021.

Hospiscare, the hospice charity for Exeter, Mid and East Devon, is challenging you to take on a new adventure for the New Year to raise vital funds for local people living with a terminal illness.

Caring for more than 2,000 patients every year, the local charity relies on the fundraising efforts of its community to generate 82 per cent of the money needed to provide specialist end-of-life care in the heart of Devon.

The charity is offering a variety of challenge events in 2021 to test your daring whilst raising vital funds for its patients and their families.

If you’re looking for the challenge of a lifetime, join a group of Hospiscare heroes for a 12-day trek in the Himalayas.

This trekking challenge will test your endurance and reward you with panoramic views, as well as the experience of Nepalese food and culture.

By taking part, you will be supporting palliative care both at home and abroad as this trip includes volunteering at a hospice in Kathmandu.

Hospiscare has worked closely with Different Travel, its third party travel company, to create a “Covid Promise”, which ensures those taking part are entitled to a full refund if the trip is cancelled due to Covid-19.

For those seeking an adrenaline-fuelled feat of daring, why not take to the skies for Hospiscare?

Admire Devon from a view of 12,000 ft as you skydive to support end-of-life care.

If you don’t fancy the free fall, strap yourself to a vintage biplane to take on a Wing Walk challenge!

Both of these challenges will take place at Dunkeswell Airfield in Honiton on May 2, July 26 and September 18.

If you would rather keep your feet on the ground, join Team Hospiscare and take on Exeter’s only half marathon: The Great West Run.

Put your stamina to the test on May 23, 2021, knowing that Team Hospsicare will be with you every step of the way.

You’ll even receive your own Hospiscare Hero medal for completing this epic challenge.
