What is the Hospice 100?

"Here at Saint Francis Hospice, we have set up the Hospice 100, a campaign to help develop long lasting relationships with local businesses who would like to support the Hospice on a regular basis. 

"Like most charities, the Hospice is still feeling the affects of the pandemic, after it stopped all fundraising events, closed our shops and forced us to find new ways of working. And while our income was reduced, we were helping to care for more people than ever before. 

"We have set up the Hospice 100 to find 100 local businesses, who can pledge to raise a minimum of £1000 in a period of 12 months. 

"By pledging to give regular ongoing support, you will help us to bridge the funding gap and help us have a stream of revenue we can rely on to help us care for our patients."

- Andy Furneaux, Local Engagement Team

"We are proud to support such a great charity"

Drew and Son were the first company to join the Hospice 100. They have raised more than £4000 already in this short time and have so much more planned. 

Owner, Steve, says, "The nurses and staff are so committed, caring & compassionate, working tirelessly in supporting families who come through the doors of the Hospice.

"We work closely with the hospice all year round and see at first hand the hard work that goes on.

"Becoming part of the Hospice 100 is so important to ensure the Hospice continues with the great work it does."
