£30 for 30 years
2024 marks an incredible 30 years since Forest Holme Hospice Charity was set up to raise funds for the new specialist palliative care unit.
1994 was the year Four Weddings and a Funeral became the top grossing UK film, the first UK National Lottery draw took place, and Tony Blair won the Labour Party leadership election.
The Charity officially launched on April 26th as Prince’s ‘The Most Beautiful Girl in the World’ topped the UK charts.
Since then, donations from supporters have helped the hospice to care for over 30,000 patients and their families.
We wouldn’t be providing the kind of care we do today if it wasn’t for the support of people like you. Thank you.
By donating £30 during our anniversary year, you will help to continue our vital services over the next 30 years and support terminally ill patients during the most difficult time of their lives.
Your donation of £30 could help fund:
- A bereavement counselling session following the death of a loved one
- An aromatherapy session for a patient going through cancer treatment
- A yoga session for cancer patients to boost fitness and wellbeing
In appreciation of your donation, you will receive a commemorative pin badge, along with a thank you letter.
