What’s On with Willen Hospice this September & October

Posted 26th August 2025

From dressing up and dashing around the lake, to thrilling theme park rides and even taking care of life’s important paperwork (yes, really!) – September and October are full of ways you can support Willen Hospice while doing something meaningful. Here’s what’s coming up…

Gulliver’s Land Takeover

Mini Moo – Sunday 14 September

🎭 Mini Moo Madness – Sunday 14 September

Run, scoot, walk – just don’t forget your fancy dress!

If you’ve got kids aged 0–14, this one’s for you. Mini Moo is back, and it’s the perfect chance to get the little ones moving while raising money for Willen Hospice. Starting with a lively warm-up (expect lots of jumping, stretching and giggles), the children then set off around Willen’s North Lake for one sponsored lap – whether that’s running, scooting, or walking in style.

The best bit? Everyone gets to dress up as their favourite character. Think superheroes, princesses, cartoon favourites or even a herd of mini cows – the more imaginative, the better! There’ll be entertainment along the way, and a great atmosphere that makes this event as much about fun as it is about fundraising.

Thanks to the generous support of Brioche Pasquier UK, every lap taken helps Willen Hospice continue their vital work. So, dig out the costumes, pin on those numbers, and let the kids experience the joy of making a difference.

🎢 Gulliver’s Land Takeover – Saturday 20 & Sunday 21 September

All the rides you love, with a little extra magic from Willen Hospice.

What happens when you mix rollercoasters, fairground fun, and a sprinkle of community spirit? You get the Gulliver’s Land Takeover! For one whole weekend, Willen Hospice is putting its stamp on the theme park – and it’s going to be unforgettable.

Alongside all the usual thrills of Gulliver’s rides, families can look forward to games, stalls, live entertainment, face painting, and more. It’s a proper family day out with a twist – knowing that by being there, you’re supporting an incredible local cause.

Tickets start from just £17, with £2.50 from every ticket sold going directly to Willen Hospice. That means you can scream your lungs out on the rides and still feel good about it afterwards (a win-win, really).
