You did it! 557 women completed Sleepwalk 2008, with 98 people helping out behind the scenes.
Thank you so much to everyone who helped.

Thank you to everyone who took part and helped with Sleepwalk 2008. It was great fun arranging it. We hope you enjoyed it. We've got a few items of clothing that seem to have been left behind - green shoes, chiffon scarf, pink pj jacket and green outdoor jacket. Contact us by July 31st to reclaim or they go to one of our charity shops.
 
 
Walkers are now collecting all their sponsorship in. Please remember two things:
1. cheques are payable to Lindsey Lodge Hospice and 2. anyone authorising Gift Aid at 28p for every 31 sponsored must put their home postcode, not their work address. Their details will not be used for any purpose other than Gift Aid claim.
You can collect sponsorship by setting up an online fundraising page with http://www.justgiving.com/. It's very easy to do and takes all the hassle away from chasing people up, especially those people you don't see very often. Remember that you will need to promote your online fundraising page - nobody does that for you.
Sleepwalk 2008 was supported by Corus, Scunthorpe United F.C and Limelight Software Ltd. Lots of other businesses also helped by providing goods and services at no costs or reduced cost.
 
Lindsey Lodge Hospice is an independent charity offering a range of specialist services for people with specific life-threatening illnesses such as cancer, multiple sclerosis and motor neuron disease.
All services are offered free of charge. Some funding is received from the North Lincolnshire Primary Care Trust, but most of the income is gratefully received from the generosity of local people and organizations.
Providing these services will cost Lindsey Lodge Hospice £1,800,000 this year – that’s around £3.50 for every minute. So every £1 raised is precious and gratefully received.
We're planning for 2009 so please let us have any comments and ideas that you think will make Sleepwalk 2009 even better. You can contact us using the details on the left hand side of this page.
