A HOSPICE’S fundraising trip raised £48,979.80 to be spent on patient care.
The Saint Catherine’s Atlas Mountain Trek saw a group of supporters take on the North African challenge.
Tracy Calcraft of the hospice said: “We are absolutely delighted with the amount this wonderful group of people have raised.
“They have trained hard and fundraised for nearly 18 months to complete this and we are astounded by their achievement.
“They have put their heart and soul into this trek and the results are fantastic. We are always overwhelmed by the lengths that people will go to support us.”
“This money will go directly towards helping us provide care in people’s homes and at our In-Patient Unit for the communities in across Scarborough, Whitby, Ryedale and parts of the East Riding.”
