Thank you to everyone who came along and supported our garden fete on Saturday 9 September. Together, you all helped to raise over £11,000 which is just an incredible amount. Thank you.
The sun was shining and it was a joyous afternoon of fun, laughter and community spirit to help raise vital funds so that we can continue to offer free care and support to local people and their families at the most difficult of times.
We couldn’t have done it without our tireless staff, volunteers, stall holders, entertainers and classic car owners who made the afternoon so memorable.
A special thank you to our corporate supporters:
Arval UK for kindly supporting the cost of crafting the roses and for getting the gardens tidied up as well as helping to plant the roses.
