St Richard’s Hospice: A Lifeline for the Community

St Richard’s Hospice is a Worcestershire-based charity dedicated to providing compassionate care for people living with serious illnesses. Their work extends to supporting patients, families, and caregivers through a range of vital services, including:

• Palliative and End-of-Life Care: Ensuring dignity and comfort for patients during their most challenging moments.
• Emotional Support: Offering counselling and support groups to help families navigate the emotional journey of illness and loss.
• Wellbeing Programmes: Helping patients maintain their independence and quality of life through practical and therapeutic support.

Relying on fundraising events, donations, and the efforts of dedicated volunteers, St Richard’s Hospice continues to make a profound impact on the local community.

At OLPRO, we’re thrilled to support this vital organisation based in our community. As a local business passionate about the great outdoors, we believe in using our resources to help initiatives that bring people together for a greater cause.

The Worcestershire Way Walk: A Challenge Worth Taking

The Worcestershire Way Walk, organised by St Richard’s Hospice, is an exhilarating 31-mile trek through the stunning Worcestershire countryside. Starting at Bewdley and finishing at Malvern, the route offers breath taking views, diverse terrain, and a rewarding physical challenge.

Participants embark on this journey not only to test their endurance but also to raise crucial funds for the hospice’s services. It’s a powerful way to make a difference while enjoying the beauty of the outdoors.

Camping is a key part of the experience for many participants, adding an extra layer of adventure to the walk. OLPRO is proud to provide tents for hire to participants, ensuring they have a reliable and comfortable place to rest during this demanding challenge.
