ST Leonard’s Hospice, York, is about to celebrate 30 years of caring for local people.
At this special time of year I would like, on behalf of those who have experienced the care provided at the hospice or through Hospice@Home, to thank our many supporters and friends in west and northern Ryedale for their continuing generosity, enabling our nurses to care for an increasing number of local people especially in their own homes.
We receive tremendous support from individuals, families, companies and community groups but also from an “army” of 500 volunteers who support us in our shops, by driving, working in the hospice or helping with essential fundraising. Thank you all, without you there would be no St Leonard’s.
Finally, St Leonard’s Hospice wishes everyone a very Happy Christmas and peaceful New Year.
Martyn Callaghan, St Leonard’s Hospice, York, chief executive
