This Christmas, while many of us are enjoying time with loved ones, Hospice of the Valleys will be providing compassionate care to patients and families across Blaenau Gwent and surrounding areas.

So we will be festive fundraising to help them continue to deliver vital services from home visits, bereavement care to specialist nursing care.

So grab your festive jumper, pull on your PJs or dig out that Santa suit – and join me in making this Christmas a little brighter for local families when they need it most.
