St Luke’s (Cheshire) Hospice is appealing to South Cheshire residents to help mark its milestone 25th anniversary in style.
The hospice has launched a commemorative £25,000 fundraising campaign.
It is asking its network of fundraisers to chip in however they can through simple donations or new, daring or quirky challenges.
And the campaign will be monitored with a classic “Blue Peter style” totaliser in the front entrance of the hospice.
The drive will also play a big part in recovering a shortfall in anticipated fundraising from the hospice’s Lottery Bumper Silver Anniversary Car Superdraw.
Hospice bosses fear the draw suffered after thousands of their anniversary newsletters were not delivered across the area.
St Luke’s commercial director Andrea Fragata Ladeira said: “Reaching this special goal of £25,000 in our 25th year would be a fantastic way to commemorate our milestone.
“We have a network of the most amazing, generous and innovative supporters across Mid and South Cheshire and we are so thankful for their on-going dedication and unrivalled support.
“We are planning to put up a colourful totaliser in the hospice entrance so that every time patients and staff arrive and leave, they will be able to see the progress we’re making together.
“It doesn’t matter if it’s a big quirky event or even the smallest kind donation; every penny will go a long way towards maintaining the care St Luke’s provides for the community.”
