Jim said: “We chose to raise money for the Hospice at Home service provided by St Barnabas House, our local hospice, as both Jill and I have had family and friends cared for by the compassionate nurses of St Barnabas, who have given great comfort at a very difficult time.”
The money raised is enough to allow 80 patients to benefit from a whole day’s care in their own homes from the Hospice at Home team.
Mary Bye, community fundraiser at St Barnabas House, said: “It’s been a delight to work with Jim and Jill over the past year. Thank you to everyone at Ham Manor for raising such a wonderful total which will make a real difference to the lives of local people.”
