Jethro Shearring, Fundraising Coordinator at Dove House expressed his gratitude at the generously shown by people as donations exceeded £600, he said;

“The fundraising evening was a huge success and £625 was raised for Dove House, for which we cannot thank the staff and customers enough.”

“At Dove House Hospice we are completely reliant on the generosity of local businesses such as Dine Bangla to continue to provide end of life care, free of charge, to the community.”

“Dine Bangla have kindly supported the hospice in the past and in deciding to hold a celebration evening in recognition of their award winning head chef, the owner Ash Islam very kindly approached us to make the hospice a part of the evening as well.”

“The staff all worked extremely hard to make the event an unqualified success and we were so pleased to see the generosity shown by everyone involved.”

“ It costs £6.7 million a year to run the hospice with the equivalent of only 41 days government funding.”

“The money raised will help ensure that we can continue to be at the forefront of palliative care in Hull and East Yorkshire, allowing us to make a positive difference to our patients and their families throughout Christmas and beyond.”
