Oakhaven Hospice is delighted to announce Pennyfarthing Homes as the sponsor of its annual fundraising walk for the next three years.

Pennyfarthing has been a long-time supporter of Oakhaven Hospice, sponsoring the charity’s fundraising walk since 2018. By committing to a further three-year sponsorship, the company is providing the hospice with valuable stability, helping to ensure smoother event planning in the months and years ahead.

The Oakhaven Walk, where participants choose to walk to Oakhaven Hospice in Lower Pennington from Sandbanks (circa 26 miles), Mudeford (circa 14 miles) or Barton on Sea (circa 8 miles), is a highlight in the Oakhaven fundraising events calendar and this year will be taking place on Saturday 17 May.

This fundraising promenade along the spectacular Dorset and Hampshire coastline provides the perfect challenge for friends, families and colleagues, whilst raising much-needed funds for Oakhaven Hospice. In 2024, nearly 500 participants raised over £110,000 for the hospice.

Andrew Ryde, Oakhaven’s Chief Executive, said: “We are extremely grateful to Pennyfarthing Homes for committing their support for our popular Oakhaven Walk for 2025 and the next two years. Sponsorship helps to cover the costs of the event, meaning that every penny fundraised by walk participants will directly support the vital care and support that Oakhaven provides free of charge to patients and their loved ones, throughout our Lymington, Totton and Waterside communities.”

Danny Adams, Director at Pennyfarthing Homes commented: “All of us at Pennyfarthing take immense pride in knowing that we are making a difference to this invaluable charity and the people it supports.  The Oakhaven Hospice doesn’t just provide end-of-life care, it offers crucial support to the whole family, friends and loved ones – helping to ease the pain during one of life’s most difficult times.”
