This fantastic amount of money was raised through an afternoon tea which was organised by Jan Clark, a member of the Inner Wheel who also volunteers at the Hospice, on Waverley Lane in Farnham.
“We would like to thank Jan and all of the ladies of the Inner Wheel for holding this fundraising event,” said Leanne Tembo, Community Fundraiser at Phyllis Tuckwell. “Every day we provide supportive and end of life care to over 250 patients and relatives who are facing cancer, or another serious progressive illness. However, as the NHS/Government only covers 20% of our costs, we have to raise over £15,000 a day to be able to offer all our services, and rely heavily on the support of local community groups, such as the Inner Wheel, to do this.”
