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? 🏆🪩

Today is Random Acts of Kindness Day!

Kindness is at the heart of everything we do at Dr Kershaw’s Hospice - in the way our teams care for patients, support families and look out for one another. 💜

Today is a gentle reminder that even the smallest act of kindness can make a big difference. A friendly message, a listening ear, or a simple cup of tea can mean more than you realise.

If you’ve experienced kindness from our staff or volunteers, we’d love to hear your story in the comments below.

For a second year, we're proud to stand with 127 hospices across England, Scotland, and Wales, for the campaign, brought together by Hospice UK.

The campaign aims to continue to raise awareness about the vital role hospices play in communities, encouraging people to consider leaving a gift in their Will to support their local hospice, ensuring that these essential services can continue to provide compassionate and specialist care for future generations.

Together, we can make sure that hospice care lives on for all, for now, forever. 💜
