Together with close family and friends, the siblings formed ‘Tommy’s Team’ and ran the half marathon in memory of their Dad, Tommy Coleman.

The team of six wanted to show their appreciation to the hospice on behalf of many local families who are ‘grateful for the wonderful care, empathy, support and guidance that the hospice and its amazing staff provide to all of the family in the darkest times.’

A spokesperson for the team said that they were overwhelmed by the support they received.

‘It has been an extremely uplifting and positive experience for the whole family,’ they said.
