Katharine House Hospice appeal almost at half of target
An urgent appeal to save Katharine House Hospice from closing down has almost reach half of its £1 million fundraising target.
The Stafford hospice, which cares for around 1,300 people with life-limiting conditions, launched an emergency appeal at the end of September, revealing it needed to raise £1 million to remain open after being hit hard by the coronavirus pandemic.
More than £46,000 was raised in the first two days, and this has now jumped up to £499,180.
The charity has previously announced it would be closing four of its charity shops to help with costs – including stores in Stone, Cannock and Norton Canes. To donate visit justgiving.com/campaign/savekhhospice or log on to khhospice.org.uk and click the link.
