You simply take one of our yellow collection pots for your shop, pub or place of work, for customers, staff and colleagues to fill with their loose change.
On a regular basis, arranged to suit you, one of our dedicated Box Collectors will come and replace your collecting pot and issue you with a receipt. In your first year of collecting we will send you a certificate for each donation. In subsequent years, we’ll send you an annual certificate (unless you request otherwise) confirming how much you have raised throughout the year. If your box becomes full before its scheduled collection date, you can contact us and we will arrange for it to get collected.

I have worked as the business box collector for Prospect Hospice since 2015. I thoroughly enjoy my role as I meet lots of lovely people and it fits in very well with my day to day life.
I love working with the team and enjoy seeing how our local businesses support the hospice.
In my spare time I enjoy playing golf, going on holidays and eating (and drinking) out.
