Thread: Hospice fundraiser

Well, our fundraising night was a huge success. We managed to raise £200 exactly!! All the money is going to the Hospice in Exeter right next to the RD and E Hospital.
The nurses there took such great care of my Dad, so we feel that it's good to give something back.

Well done Flood. It's a good feeling to give something back. Doesn't help your Dad but helps all those who are suffering now and I'm sure your Dad would be pleased and proud

Yes Mary, he would be pleased and very proud that we do it each year.
The first one we did back in 2003, raised £256. It was great, and we were'nt expecting that much.
Do you know what? I'd pose naked for the Hospice! Talk about Calendar Girls. Now that would be a laugh!!

Well Done Flood!

Thats a good amount to raise in just one night! I love going to fund-raising do's....cos you get the pleasure of a night out...but also helping someone less fortunate at the same time!
