Event
Hop, Skip and Jump
20 April 2026 (All Day)
Hop, Skip & Jump promises fun, laughter, and a chance for the children at your School or Nursery to get creative; all while making a difference to the community and supporting East Lancashire Hospice.
Over the last two years, our campaign has raised over £15,000 for East Lancashire Hospice and we had over 30 local schools and nurseries involved. This year, we want to go one step further and raise over £25,000 for the hospice – can you help us?
Each school/nursery will choose a day in April, May or June, to take part in the event. Children can take part in the challenge by hopping, skipping, or jumping their way through a designated course or timeframe that works for you.
What’s Included
Each child receives a fundraising pack:
- Sponsorship form
- Spring‑themed crown to decorate
- Certificate
- Chocolate treat
Once the event has passed, our Community Fundraiser, Jackie, will present the school with a cheque presentation.
Prices and Registration
Free to take part and schools raise sponsorship.

Make a Donation
Your donation helps East Lancashire Hospice be there for our patients and their friends and family when they need us most.
We receive just one third of our funding from the government, so we rely on the generosity of our community to help us raise over £4.5 million each year. Every gift, big or small, helps us provide specialist care and support and focus on what matters most.
