This amazing charity provides compassionate care and support to people with life-limiting illnesses, as well as their families, when they need it most. Every step I take will be in support of the incredible work they do every day.
If you’re able to sponsor me, no matter how big or small, it would mean so much and will go directly towards helping those in need.
Thank you so much for your support – it really makes a difference! 🙏

I'm doing Fun Walk 2026 for St Christopher's - please sponsor me!

Looking for a big night out but don’t want to travel too far afield? You can tick both those boxes by heading on down to The General Napier this Saturday night to witness local legends The Deptford Wives dishing up a tasty helping of floor filling covers and a few of their own quirky creations. If you’ve got anything left in the tank after that, our house DJs will keep you dancing until they pull pull the plug. Be there or be square!

This pet-friendly establishment offers a warm and welcoming atmosphere to all its patrons. With Sky sports and event nights, there's always something exciting happening at The General Napier.

The pub's darts team has been making waves lately, winning two tournaments in a row. Congratulations to the team and their star player Mandy! The General Napier also knows how to throw a great party, as evidenced by the fantastic night they hosted for Lauren's 30th birthday.
