We love celebrating the amazing achievements of our incredible community. Read on to find out all of the wonderful activities that have taken place in May thanks to our community:
Trusts
We’re incredibly grateful to The Grace Trust for their generous grant support of £1,670 for the purchase of essential equipment in our hospice’s inpatient unit. As a hospice, we only receive 22% of our funding from the government, which means we need to raise an additional £14,500 to continue providing compassionate care to the North Hampshire community we serve. Charitable trusts and foundations’ support makes a significant impact, allowing us to cover crucial costs and vital resources that ensure we provide high-quality care. Thank you for your generosity and for making a difference in the lives of those who need it most!
