⭐Exciting announcement⭐

We are delighted to announce a brand new two year partnership between us and PokerStars (a Flutter International brand)! During this time, they aim to raise enough money to cover the entire cost of two of our palliative care nurses💜

Huge thank you💜

Huge thank you to this wonderful group of ladies💜

These friends from St Mary’s and St Anthony’s churches made soup and desserts over the Thursdays during Lent. They raised an incredible £1,600 which they chose to donate to us in memory of Rev. Canon Brendan Alger.

Thank you!

We’re over the moon with a very kind donation made to us by Paul Tonks, Jenny Druggan & Andy Tonks.

They made the donation of a PA system in memory of their late mum. It came about as we host many fundraising events throughout the year & are always in need of one.

Thank you💜
