Celebrating teamwork, creativity, and community spirit while fundraising for the Hospice of the Good Shepherd through an exciting local Soapbox Derby.

Excitement is building at CareYourWay Chester as preparations reach full swing for the much-loved Farndon Soapbox Derby — a highlight of the local community calendar.

A Day of Fun for a Worthy Cause

The derby is more than just a fun-filled family event; it’s an opportunity to rally behind a truly meaningful cause. Proceeds from the day will support the Hospice of the Good Shepherd in Chester, which provides compassionate care, guidance, and comfort to individuals and their loved ones during life’s most challenging moments.

We’re so proud to be part of something that gives back to the community. Supporting a cause as important as the hospice means the world to us — we can’t wait to take part this year!
