We’re raising money to Support Sue Ryder, Leckhampton Court
Hospice.

Sadly last month we lost a good friend and colleague, Malcolm Ball. Malc was recently diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukaemia and sadly after a very short period, passed away due to the illness. In his memory we’re organising a fund raising drive so that we can raise as much money as possible to help Sue Ryder.

Malcolm’s final days were spent at the Leckhampton Court Hospice in Cheltenham which is part of the Sue Ryder foundation.  It was here that he received Palliative care for his illness and was treated with love and dignity during this very difficult period.  Not only did Sue Ryder provide this care for Malcolm but they also offered love and support to his wife Vanessa and his Children. The care that he received meant that his final days were spent in nice surroundings with wonderful people, where his family could be around him and where he was kept as pain free as possible.

How you can help?

This invaluable work is carried out daily at all of the Sue Ryder facilities up and down the country.  Every day people and their families are going through probably the toughest most emotional times of their lives and it’s the amazing staff at Sue Ryder that offer their love, support and kindness at these time exceptionally hard times. Sue Ryder rely heavily on charitable donations in order for them to continue to provide care across all of their hospices and below are some key facts.

£5 Could provide a memory box for a bereaved child, to help them cope with their loss.

£19 Could pay for one hour of our expert care, helping people live the best life they possibly can.

£60 Could provide one session of bereavement counselling for someone struggling to cope with the loss of a loved one.

£140 Could pay for a hospice nurse for a day.

£500 Could pay for a bed for a day of inpatient care for a
