MILFORD Haven nutritional centre Healthaspire is organising a walking event around Milford Marina to help raise money for the Paul Sartori Foundation, Pembrokeshire’s only Hospice at Home Service, with support from the Port of Milford Haven.

The event, Healthaspire Hike, starts outside the Healthaspire headquarters in Milford Marina at 10am on Sunday September 11.

There are three distances to choose from 2k, 5k or 10k, following the marina and surrounding areas. Brett Sheppard from B-Fit Health & Fitness Centre, also based in Milford Marina, will be warming up the walkers before the start.

Ellen Picton, proprietor and nutritionist from Healthaspire said: “Nutrition plays a huge part to our health but exercise is as equally important, walking has huge benefits for the body including building bone strength, helping circulation, relieving stress and its a great way to top up on vitamin D,” adding, “it is great that we are able to raise money for such a worthwhile charity, such as the Paul Sartori Foundation.”

Toni Dorkings, community fundraiser for the Paul Sartori Foundation, said: “We are thrilled to have been chosen as the Charity for the Healthaspire Hike and we are extremely grateful to the Port of Milford Haven and Ellen for giving us the opportunity to raise funds for the Paul Sartori Foundation.”

On the day, there will be refreshments available and a craft corner for kids in the marquee. The registration fee is £10.50 and all net profits will be donated to the Paul Sartori Foundation.
