Charity Partners
The Sodbury Slog has always had charity at its heart and over the years has raised somewhere in the region of £60,000 for a wide range of charities. We are very pleased to support the following organisations, both with direct charitable donations and by offering bond places to enable them to raise their own funds through people running the event.
Jessie May
Jessie May is a charity that provides hospice at home care for terminally ill children in Bristol and the surrounding area. The charity was set up by the parents of Jessica May Purrington, a little girl who died at home aged 4 months, surrounded by her family and her nurses. Jessie May has a team of dedicated nurses who provide care to children and families during a child’s life and after their death.
