Supporting local communities is an important part of our values and we are delighted that Rowcroft Hospice is our Charity of the Year for 2020.

We have many events planned throughout the year and will share the highlights from our fundraising over 2020, as we raise money and awareness for this wonderful cause.

Based in Torquay Rowcroft Hospice provides palliative care to people across South Devon. In fact, almost 500 local people a year receive care and support from Rowcroft.

Irrespective of diagnosis or circumstance the hospice selflessly assists adults living with a life-limiting illness, and their families, completely free of charge.

However, providing this service comes at a cost of almost £7.8 million a year, of which 70 per cent comes from donations from the public and businesses like you and us.

As the population of South Devon grows older and their care needs become more complex, the work of Rowcroft Hospice has never been more essential.
