A local committee in Thirsk are celebrating their 2nd anniversary of successful fundraising by raising almost £70,000.00 in aid of a local hospice.

From their original Jubilee raffle in 2022 to successful subsequent initiatives such as Host a Roast, Family Fun days, pop-up-shop and their Influmental event, the Thirsk Friends of the Lambert fundraising group have gone ‘above and beyond’ choosing to raise funds to help Herriot Hospice Homecare open Herriot Hospice@The Lambert, in Thirsk.

Herriot Hospice Homecare are currently putting the finishing touches to the transformation of the former Lambert Memorial Hospital, which will house existing homecare, wellbeing and bereavement services as well as providing an inpatient unit for those living with terminal illness locally, offering specialist care when it’s most needed.

With only 25% government funding, Herriot Hospice Homecare relies on the generosity of the public to raise the vital funds needed to deliver hospice care.
