Our next Wellbeing Walk is this Friday, with a walk around Chadderton Hall Park.

Meet at the café at 10:45am for a gentle, friendly, local walk led by experienced trained leaders. The walk will last around 1 hour and will be on easy ground. Afterwards there is an option to stay for a cuppa and a chat.

The walk is for the Dr Kershaw's Hospice bereaved community - those living with or affected by loss, sometimes it can help to do a little gentle exercise and meet up with others for company!

For more information, please contact our Wellbeing Team on 0161 624 2727 or drkh.wellbeing@nhs.net

Meet the eighth wonderful dance couple of our Dr Kershaw's Strictly 2026 event, June Knox & Michael Flynn! 💃🕺

Employment law adviser, June was inspired by previous Strictly participants and her own passion for ballroom (sparked by her dancing parents), she decided it was time to say “now or never!” A regular supporter of our fundraising events, June is excited to learn something new, embrace the sparkle and help raise vital funds for Dr Kershaw's - and she’s looking forward to wearing a sparkly number on the night!

Michael is a retired ex-professional footballer, having played over 700 league and cup games for eight different clubs (including Oldham Athletic) during his career. Now he’s swapping the football pitch for the dance floor to step outside of his comfort zone and raise money for our Hospice.

Will June and Michael take home the Glitterball Trophy?🏆🪩

Meet the seventh fantastic dance couple of our Dr Kershaw's Strictly 2026 event, Ashleigh Carr-Russell & Luke Greaves! 💃🕺

As a child, Ashleigh danced disco, rock and roll, Latin, ballroom and cheerleading. She is excited to return to the dance floor after a number of years away. Signing up to Strictly is her way of stepping outside her comfort zone and facing her nerves, she says: "Nerves for me is nothing compared to what others go through daily!"

Luke is stepping into Strictly after being roped in by his brother, all in support of a charity close to their hearts. When he’s not working for KG Construction, he enjoys art and graphic design, carp fishing and family holidays. He's keen to push himself outside his comfort zone, but he’ll be hoping his track record of splitting his pants front to back at weddings and parties comes to an end!

Will Ashleigh and Luke be crowned the winners of Dr Kershaw’s Strictly 2026? 🏆🪩
