SUMMIT AT SUNSET

Hospice at Home are very excited to launch their flagship event for 2023, supported by Lakeland Mountain Guides.

We invite you to take part in our 10km ‘Summit at Sunset’ and experience an evening walk up Blencathra. Standing at 868m above sea level and also known as Saddleback due to the shape of the mountain, this is one of the finest and most iconic mountains in the Northern Lake District.

descending via Blease Fell.

This 10km route will not only be the most wonderful experience, but whilst conquering this route participants will be in the knowledge that they are helping local patients receive hospice care in the home, with support also provided for their loved ones.

Registration for this event will be £39 per person

4EDEN began in 1986 as Eden Mencap Society, which has grown from supporting just a few children & adults into a large charity. Eden Mencap re-branded as 4EDEN in 2019.

Over the last few years, 4EDEN has diversified to provide a wide variety of opportunities for children, young people and adults to enable people to live independently, join recreation and community groups, experience work placements, work opportunities, and obtain training and employment.

4EDEN is person led – this means that the person who requires support/coaching leads their service provision, by leading their plans and developing their outcomes to achieve their goals and their full potential.

Our staff are coaches; they walk alongside the person to guide and encourage people in achieving their identified goals and outcomes in a way that is respectful and understanding. Everyone is different, so are our coaches! 4Eden match people together so that genuine professional relationships develop and coaches and people being supported travel their life journey together. We operate a ‘revolving door’ where people join us – build up their skills, move on and then return to gain more skills – if that’s what’s needed/what they want. 4EDEN is here to promote independence and community involvement and to introduce people to all the fabulous networks of support and friendships our community has to offer.

We are passionate about our local community –4EDEN only work in the Eden Valley.

Unique abilities – valued equally.
