THE HOSPICES

St Richards Hospice is currently trying to raise Β£5.25 million pounds for a brand new unit with beds

They currently occupy a lovely old building in London Road in Worcester which is too small and only suitable for day patients

Kemp Hospice in Kidderminster is about to move to an old hotel which they have purchased and hope to transform into a bedded hospice

They hope to be ready to move to the site before the year is out

Primrose Hospice in Bromsgrove has a day hospice in the town but is also about to provide care beds at the Princess of Wales Community Hospital in addition to the day care they offer

St Michael's Hospice at Bartestree near Hereford has been established at its present site for coming up to 20 years this September

They have improvement and expansion plans and are also aware that after twenty years, much of their equipment and fabric is beginning to wear out

Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Hereford and Worcester's Money Marathon 2004 is in aid of four hospices in the two counties.

It runs for seven weeks from Monday August 16th to Sunday October 3rd 2004 and will aid four hospices in Herefordshire and Worcestershire:

  • St Richards in Worcester
  • Kemp Hospice in Kidderminster
  • Primrose in Bromsgrove
  • St Michael's at Bartestree near Hereford

The aim is to encourage people to raise money for each of the hospices.

There will be no one cash fund as such - people are asked to send their money direct to the hospice they choose, but with a form to us on how much they raise so we can reach a grand total.

Each hospice has different requirements and goals and because they are at different stages of development each is operating in a slightly different way.

We hope to raise Β£5000 for each of them - that's Β£20, 000 in total.

For instance at the new St Richards unit, that would provide media units (combined TV, radio and DVD players) for the bedded unit, or at St Michael's that could well cover the cost of new furniture they need for their family room.

You can download an information pack which gives details of the hospices and ways in which you can donate money to the various appeals.

We will forward donations to the appropriate hospice and that way we can keep a running total.

You can all muck into our money marathon right now by bidding for a bucketful of manure from Leslie Law's gold medal winning horse.
