STICKLEPATH Phoenix Group has raised £810.50 for Children’s Hospice South West.

The money was raised through a variety of events and raffles and the cheque was presented to Children’s Hospice South West’s community fundraiser Josh Allan at Sticklepath Village Hall on January 12.

Josh said: ‘As we rely almost entirely on voluntary donations to provide our services to life-limited children, it’s great to see so much support from the local community. Our aim is simple - to make the most of short and precious lives - and we could not do this without the fundraising support of groups like the Pheonix Group and we are extremely grateful for their support.’

2016 marks the 25th anniversary since the charity was founded. If you are interested in supporting CHSW, please contact Josh on 01271 325270 or [email protected] or visit www.chsw.org.uk/25
