Swimming-a-round day: Together for hospices in Thuringia!

On Tuesday, June 24th, the time has come again: The good purpose is in the foreground at the "swimming-one-round day" in the Einsiedel outdoor pool. The support association invites all swimming enthusiasts to collect donations together for three hospices in Thuringia. The event promises fun for the whole family and should help bring a considerable sum of 4,000 euros for the good purposes.

The large-scale donation swimming has an ambitious goal: a total of 400 kilometers are to be achieved. One euro will be donated for every swim 100 meter track. In order to increase the motivation for this, the participants can expect different prices. In the last edition, the best swimmer set an impressive record with 10.8 kilometers.

a program for young and old

The Einsiedel outdoor pool is open from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. with free admission. If you want to participate, you can either register on site or online via the website of the city of Zella-Mehlis. In addition to the actual swimming, a colorful supporting program is also offered. This includes yoga, abdominal-leg-po courses, football darts and a wheel of fortune. This ensures that there is something for everyone and also brings a good pinch of fun.

The visitors can be particularly pleased about the participation of prominent representatives. Teams from the Schmalkalden-Meiningen district office and the city of Zella-Mehlis are also part of the party. The incumbent mayor will also be present together with his predecessor and actively participate with his company. The aim of this event is not only to experience a nice family day, but also to provide valuable support for the hospice movement.

hospice work has a lot of support

The importance of the hospice work cannot be assessed high enough. The organizations that benefit from the event offer incurable sick adults and children a central point of contact for care and mourning support. While the health insurance companies cover a large part of the costs for inpatient care, additional financial resources and voluntary work are essential to maintain work. Johanniter also reports that donations are used specifically for the training of volunteers and specialized therapeutic materials.

Silent of this situation are mostly the families of those affected, who often need support in the form of professional grief accompaniment. The children's hospice "Pusteblume" and the Johanniter Hospiz in Bonn-Bad Godesberg offer valuable help here to help relatives in the difficult times. The event in Zella-Mehlis is not only a sporting event, but also makes an active contribution to a very important concern.
