Anglesey hospice launches #500 Hearts Campaign to raise donations amid funding shortage

A HOSPICE has pleaded for people to fundraise to keep its doors open amid a huge loss during the pandemic. St David s Hospice said it will be short of the funding needed to provide its services due to restrictions on hosting its large-scale fundraising events and that government support is not enough. The Anglesey hospice, which provides support to adults with life-limiting or terminal illness, is searching for 500 supporters to be a part of its #500 Hearts Campaign to raise a minimum of £100 each. Andrew Everley, head of fundraising for St David s Hospice, said: “St David’s Hospice is a very special place and is close to the hearts of many people in the local community. Sadly, for the second year running, the majority of our community fundraising events will not be able to go ahead including the annual Summer Fete, the Dragon Boat Challenge and our Colour Runs. This will mean a huge loss of income for the Hospice.

Revived Dragon Boat Challenge pledged for Rotary s 100th birthday year

LAST year s Dragon Boat Challenge had to be cancelled thanks to Covid. It was reinvented as an online event - and still raised £20,000 for good causes. But given what happened last year the Rotary Club of York, which celebrates its 100th birthday this month, is determined to make this year s anniversary event a big success - Covid permitting, of course. The Challenge is planned for September. And it will be the perfect way of coming back! said media officer Mike Fieldsend. The Covid pandemic has played havoc with the Rotary club s plans over the last year - just as it has with so many other organisations.
